The Ice Beam also appeared in ''Super Metroid''. Here, Samus could also freeze enemies for platform use. The upgrade is located in the first area of Norfair, and the [[Speed Booster]] is required to gain access. Fortunately, unlike the predecessors, the Ice Beam upgrade increases damage caused to enemies, and only freezes them when they have taken enough damage. Frozen enemies, curiously, could not be Speed Boosted through. | The Ice Beam also appeared in ''Super Metroid''. Here, Samus could also freeze enemies for platform use.

Authorized in [[Sector 3 (Pyrosphere)|Pyrosphere]], the Ice Beam can freeze small enemies. Unlike other games, frozen enemies cannot be stood upon. The upgrade is required to defeat many bosses in ''Other M''. | |||

The Ice Beam made one extremely brief appearance in the Metroid Manga. Samus presumably obtained the Ice Beam between the time she left the [[Galactic Federation|Federation]] and when she returned to complete her Zero Mission. Samus shoots the Ice Beam, [[Wave Beam]], and [[Plasma Beam]] once against [[Ridley]]. | The Ice Beam made one extremely brief appearance in the Metroid Manga.
