My local Walmart has had a few copies of Metroid Prime Trilogy that I have been eying ever since hearing that it is no longer shipping. My hope was that they would eventually stick them in the $20 bargain bin, as this Walmart seems to do with discontinued items (or whenever they need the shelf space I assume). Well, after seeing the $70 price tag that its going for on amazon now, I had to make an emergency trip to Walmart, because Walmart's website listed it as unavailable at my location. 

Luckily there were still 2 copies there! I picked it up for the regular $50. I played Super Metroid for about 30 minutes when I was around 10 years old I think but I never owned the game. I have yet to play a Nintendo first party title that I have not enjoyed (except maybe Wii Play). As such, I have high hopes for this franchise!

My question for you: Do you suggest picking up Metroid and Super Metroid before or after playing the Prime series?

[Unrelated question: I was thinking about picking up a wireless sensor bar. Do you recommend the Nyko or the Official wide-range one?]
