Grapple Points, or Grapple Nodes, are objects that can be latched onto with the Grapple Beam. In Super Metroid, their first appearance, these points are metallic blocks.[1] While most are permanent structures, some temporarily disappear after shortly after use. In the Metroid Prime series and in Metroid: Other M, Grapple Points are nodes commonly found embedded in objects or floating in the air. These nodes possess magnetic properties that allow the Grapple Beam to attach to them. Gliders share this magnetic charge, allowing a Grapple Beam to attach to them.[2]
