I hate to say it but the GBA ports are absolutely the best way to play I, II, IV, V, and VI, assuming you're not going to splurge on an SNES and original cartridges of IV and VI. Emulate if you must, avoid the mobile versions like the plague. I also suggest avoiding the PSX ports of V and VI, as the slowdown/load times are really bothersome.

Hopefully the upcoming Steam pixel remasters are good, but I don't know what the story is with those in terms of release schedule.

I vastly prefer the original Tactics to the War of the Lions version, but a healthy dose of that is nostalgia probably.

With XV, I guess you really want to make sure you get the Royal Edition that has all the DLC episodes, which from what I hear add a lot to the story (though apparently in a cumbersome way).
