How would you translate the word "grip" here:

For use with XXX games console
Stereo Sound *Grip*
Black/White/Pink/Silver

and here:

Get a better *grip* and enjoy the sounds of XXX games through built in speakers.

Thank you!

apoio/suporte
Explanation:
Trata-se de um viodeogame portátil?

O Nintendo DS e o PSP, por exemplo, têm acessórios que podem ser acoplados ao console, entre eles, o "hand grip" (algo como suporte/apoio de mão -- no Brasil, encontra-se bastante como "grip de mão") e o "sound grip" (cf. imagens de referência abaixo).

Com base naquela última frase, "Get a better grip", concluo que se trata de um "apoio/suporte com som estéreo" (parecido com a segunda imagem de referência).
