The '''Spazer Beam''' (originally '''Spazer {{wp|Laser}} Beam'''<ref name="m2 manual"/>) is a [[Beam|beam]] [[Upgrade|upgrade]] that fires a three-way beam. It first appeared in ''[[Metroid II: Return of Samus]]'' and also made its second and final appearance to date in its successor title, ''[[Super Metroid]]''. The Spazer Beam has been replaced by the [[Wide Beam]] in ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'', the [[Wave Beam]] in ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'', and the [[Diffusion Beam]] in ''[[Metroid: Other M]]''. Its beams also bear a striking resemblance to the Wave Beam's in ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]''. | The '''Spazer Beam''' (originally '''Spazer {{wp|Laser}} Beam'''<ref name="m2 manual"/>) is a [[Beam|beam]] [[Upgrade|upgrade]] that fires a three-way beam.
