The 64 Power-up Gibusu is an exoskeleton that appears in the introduction chapter of Super Mario 64 1 of the Super Mario Kodansha manga.

While escaping the new and improved Bowser, Mario and Princess Peach encounter Toad giving away the 64 Power-up Gibusu. Peach takes it and gives it to Mario, so Toad gives Peach a Nintendo 64 Controller with which to control Mario, instructing her to make Mario grab Bowser's tail, rotate him and toss it. Doing so, Bowser is defeated, revealing him to be a robot controlled by Luigi who, with the help of Toad, was training Mario on how to deal with the new trials that awaits him in Super Mario 64.
