Grappling hooks are in basically every game now, but these holdout franchises waited multiple games and multiple years before caving. Such bravery!

Another worthy example: Team Fortress 2. The Grappling Hook was added in 2015 with the Mannpower update, 8 years after the game was released, and a whole 16 years after Team Fortress first came out.
