SMT IV is good game and good entry point . I prefer SMT IV Apocalypse (better gameplay), but probably IV should be played first and has great atmosphere and a sense of dark adventure.Seems like SMT IV it will be then to ease me into the jRPG monster fusion genre. I did play a few minutes of the Digital Devil Saga series on PCSX2 a few years ago and found it good though I could feel its difficulty ramp rising.
I wouldn't discard Nocturne as first entry. That game is a masterpiece, but more inconvenient. Less focus on Demon fusion min-maxing and more on dungeon crawling. At some points I though SMT IV had too many demons. In Nocturne, roster additions and upgrades felt more significant.
