Samus Aran on 12 January 2014
I'd start with the Prime trilogy for Metroid if you can still find them all.
As for Zelda, I personally started with Twilight Princess, then Skyward Sword and finally A Link between Worlds. Next will be Ocarina of Time 3D normally.
I liked ALBW the best. TP had the best story and I never really got into Skyward Sword...
