The nice thing about FE: Awakening is that even though it refers to past Fire Emblem games, it is entirely self-contained. From what I've played, it's the best introduction to the series for any new player, be they strategy veterans or general gaming neophytes. It's also good in that its as casual or hardcare as you choose to make it. It can be moderately easy or insanely difficult, based on your preferences.
Star Fox is a great game... but you can see all it has to offer in about 4 hours. An amazing four hours with awesome gameplay and visuals, but still four hours. High scores are a major part of the game, so if that doesn't appeal to you, I'd recommend only getting Star Fox 64 3D for a fairly low price.
Me personally: I bought SF64 3D for $10 (it was on sale), played it through a few times, and sold it back for $5. Best rental ever.
