retro FE is not worth playing, shitty games with awful story taking itself seriously and below average gameplay
like it or not but Awakening is the first good FE game
retro contrarian fags will cope and tell you Neo-FE is cringe and reddit and very tranime but the are the same hypocrites glorifying the incest shit in the old games

Awakening is awesome but it's filled with references to previous games, you should at least try to play some of Marth's game before it.

Blazing Blade (just called "Fire Emblem") on GBA was literally made to be the game for beginners, but you'll have to endure the inane, Dora the Explorer-esque tutorial on your first run.
