Item description, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

The Star Gun is a weapon for Geno in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. In its artwork, it appears as a light-colored, star-patterned version of the Finger Shot, but in the game itself, it instead fires three volleys of small stars from both wrists. Like the Finger Shot and Star Gun, a Timed Hit can be performed by pressing the button as he begins to fire, boosting the power slightly. The Star Gun has an attack power of 57 points with a random variation of up to seven points above and below, making it Geno's strongest weapon in the game (surpassed by the Stella 023 in the remake). Only one Star Gun can be obtained in the game, located at the end of a battle course at Bowser's Keep. It can be sold for 60 coins, but cannot be replaced.
