The other one is the design from Other M, which was subsequently used by Smash 3DS/Wii U and Smash Ultimate. Samus' many Varia Suit designs in general are very similar so unless you're super into Metroid or the character herself like me it's really smaller differences that would roll by you.
The Other M version is both easier and cheaper to find on the aftermarket, and at one point I thought I'd be fine with that; but I later realised I'm not overly fond of the design. Aside from the game it's associated with it takes the proportions in a direction I'm not too fond of - the Prime version just feels stronger and beefier and like it means business - and most criminally of all the shoulders aren't spiky! The scoundrels! The Prime version also got a re-issue last year and is currently in-stock on BBTS so that absolutely sealed the deal. Only downside is that the Other M version has a blast effect part which I would have liked, but it's no big deal at the end of the day.
