Chronological order is

Metroid (NES) or Metroid Zero Mission (GBA)
Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime Hunters (skip it)
Metroid Prime 2
Metroid Prime 3
Federation Forces (skip it)
Metroid 2 (or the 3DS remake)
Super Metroid
Metroid Other M
Metroid Fusion

I've only played Metroid Prime 1-3. Are they all story-heavy, and are the classics considered better?

The only ones that are story heavy are MP 3 and other M. MP 2 also has a developped story too, but  less than Corruption, all the other games are more like Metroid Prime 1, with a minimalist story, almost no dialogue.

Zero Mission has a little more story though.
