:The Super Metroid version of the Grapple Beam fires from the Arm Cannon, which is what SSB64 used and the following games copied. It's never been called anything but the Grapple Beam (though it was called the Grapple Lasso in MP3:C), so there's no reason to change it, especially for a minor point like the one you presented.

::The only reason I brought this up is because of this page on Wikitroid: http://metroid.wikia.com/wiki/Grappling_Beam. It states the Grappling Beam appeared in Super Metroid, while the Grapple Beam was present in the Prime sub-series. It also comments about its appearance on the SSB series on the Trivia section of the Grapple Beam page, here: http://metroid.wikia.com/wiki/Grapple_Beam. Anyways, thank you for taking the time to answer me. [[User:PokemonOne|PokemonOne]] ([[User talk:PokemonOne|talk]]) 09:36, July 19, 2010 (UTC)PokemonOne

:::Well then, that changes things a bit, and it makes it a bit less clear. Accoring to the two pages there:
:::*The Grappling Beam comes out of the Arm Cannon, can only grab onto certain blocks, and can damage enemies.
:::*The Grapple Beam comes out of Samus' left arm, can only grab onto things that are classified as grappling points, and can be used to grab (but not damage) enemies.
:::*The whatever-we-should-call-it in Smash Bros. comes out of the Arm Cannon, can grab any part of the stage (SSBM) or any grabbable edge (SSBB), and can be used to grab or damage enemies.
:::Personally, I'd keep it how it currently is (Grapple Beam), as it may be the "modern" name for the tool (changing fom "ing" to "non-ing" to match the naming of the other beams).

::::You raise a good point. Okay, let's just keep it the way it is. If we try to make sense of Brawl, we'll probably end in a hospice. And since Metroid: Other M is coming soon, and will be the first 3D outside the Prime series, we may get a definitive answer to this question. Thanks for your help.[[User:PokemonOne|PokemonOne]] ([[User talk:PokemonOne|talk]]) 11:04, July 20, 2010 (UTC)PokemonOne
== It's not from Super Metroid, it's from Zero Mission. ==
Here's a direct comparison with Brawl's Varia (Orange) and Gravity (Purple) models with sprites and artwork from Zero Mission: https://imgur.com/a/L7xfSxQ [[User:SMM9673|SMM9673]] ([[User talk:SMM9673|talk]]) 10:13, October 3, 2024 (EDT)
