| |
| '''Starbeans Cafe''' is a shop in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|its 3DS remake]]. It is located in [[Beanbean Castle Town]]. The shop's '''Beanbean Machine'''<ref>{{cite|quote=Have you tried the drinks made by my latest invention: the wondrous Beanbean Machine?|author=Professor E. Gadd|title=''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''}}</ref> utilizes a special '''StarB System''' in which customers bring various [[bean]]s to expand the menu with freshly-made '''Bean Juice'''.<ref>{{cite|quote=You can drink Bean Juice here. Use the '''StarB System''' to increase the variety of drinks you can get.|date=2003|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|title=''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' instruction booklet|page=33}}</ref> Each drink boosts a different stat permanently and requires a certain number of beans. The "'''cafe's owner'''"<ref>{{cite|quote=Talk to the cafe’s owner to find out what kind and number of beans he’s looking for.|date=2003|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|title=''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' instruction booklet|page=33}}</ref> mixes drinks at the cost of the customer's beans, although the actual owner of the establishment is [[Professor E. Gadd]]. | |
|
| |
|
| There are seven different flavors of Bean Juice to create. Making each one for the first time is accompanied by a cutscene featuring E. Gadd. [[Wario]], [[Fox|Fox McCloud]], [[Link]], [[Captain Olimar]], [[Samus|Samus Aran]], and an [[Excitebike|Excitebike Racer]] were [[list of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga pre-release and unused content|originally planned]] to appear in these cutscenes as cameo appearances, whereas E. Gadd was only supposed to appear once. If all seven drinks are made at least once, E. Gadd will put up a picture of himself next to the counter for the remainder of the game. Icons appear next to drinks the player has already made on the drink menu, except in international releases of the original ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''.
| | ==The Coffees== |
| | *'''Woohoo Blend''' – For 25 Woo Beans, this coffee boosts a character's [[HP]] by 4. |
| | *'''Hoohoo Blend''' – 25 Hoo Beans result in a coffee that raises a character's [[Bros. Point|BP]] by 4. |
| | *'''Chuckle Blend''' – By grinding 25 Chuckle Beans, the Bros. can make a coffee that raises Speed by 4. |
| | *'''Teehee Blend''' – If 25 Hee Beans are put in the machine, the result is a coffee that boosts Stache points by 4. |
| | *'''Hoolumbian''' – By combining 15 Woo Beans and 10 Hoo Beans, this coffee can raise Power by 4. |
| | *'''Chuckoccino''' – 15 Woo Beans and 10 Chuckle Beans make a coffee that raises Defense by 4. |
| | *'''Teeheespresso''' – The most powerful coffee is made with 15 Woo Beans and 10 Hee Beans. It raises a random stat by 6 points. |
|
| |
|
| Every time a drink that has not been made before is created, Professor E. Gadd will enter the cafe and give [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] one of his inventions, usually coupled with a humorous scene. These items can be equipped in the extra equipment slot under Clothes and Badges. As with Clothes and Badges, each of the brothers can only equip one of these items at a time. There are seven types of Bean Juice and thus seven items that Mario or Luigi can equip. They are given out in a set order, listed below, regardless of the order the drinks are made in. With the exception of the Excite Spring, Power Grip, and Cobalt Necktie, every Accessory affects both brothers, as long as they are together. If a drink is made that has already been made before, or if the brothers have received all seven items, they can still continue to make Bean Juice, but they only obtain the drink itself. | | ==Professor E. Gadd's Accessories== |
| | Every time a coffee is mixed that hasn't been made before, Professor E. Gadd will come and give the brothers an Accessory, usually coupled with a humorous scene. Accessories are extra items that can be equipped in addition to Clothes and Badges. Like Clothes and Badges, each character can only equip one Accessory. |

|
| Starbeans Cafe is named after the {{iw|wikipedia|Starbucks}} chain of coffee shops. The [[Prima Games]] guide for the game calls the establishment "a" Starbeans, further connecting it to the restaurant franchise.<ref>{{cite|quote=It's a Starbeans, a beverage shop that takes the Beans Mario and Luigi find throughout the land in Blocks, fights, mini-games, and underground, and grinds them into concoctions that affect the brothers' stats.|author=Stratton, Stephen and Levi Buchanan|title=''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide|page=74|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|language=en-us|date=November 25, 2003|isbn=0-7615-4423-2}}</ref> Three of the drinks served at the cafe have names based on real varieties of coffee: the Hoolumbian, Chuckoccino, and Teeheespresso are named for the Colombian, [[wikipedia:Cappuccino|cappuccino]], and [[wikipedia:Espresso|espresso]] coffees respectively.
| | There are 7 coffees, and thus, 7 Accessories that can be equipped to Mario or Luigi. They are given out in a set order, listed below, regardless of the order the drinks are made. With the exception of the Excite Spring, Power Grip, and Cobalt Necktie, every Accessory takes effect to both characters, as long as the characters are together. |
| | *'''Greed Wallet''' – Doubles the coins received from beating enemies. |
| | *'''Bonus Ring''' – If no damage is taken in a battle, doubles the EXP the brothers receive. |
| | *'''Excite Spring''' – By holding the [[Jump]] button while defending, that character will float in the air for a little, making evading/countering enemies easier. |
| | *'''Great Force''' – Doubles the damage given and received. |
| | *'''Power Grip''' – By holding the Hammer button while defending, that character will never drop the Hammer, making countering enemies easier. |
| | *'''Cobalt Necktie''' – Doubles Stache Points. |
| | *'''Game Boy Horror SP''' – Always get rare items after defeating enemies. (Note: Not all enemies carry items.) |
|
| |
|
| In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', the number of beans required per blend is lower, but the effect of each blend has also been reduced. In the ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'' campaign, it is revealed that E. Gadd created Starbeans as secondary funding for his ghost research. E. Gadd mindlessly admitted this while rambling to [[Captain Goomba (Mario & Luigi series)|Captain Goomba]] and his soldiers, who had already left.
| | If a coffee is made that has already been made before, or if the brothers have received all 7 Accessories, they can still continue to make coffee, but only the drink is received. |
