I was about to buy an Amiga 500 and C64 as well recently, but ended up dropping the plan. Part of me really want to go back in time, but when I ask myself how much time I am going to spend on the old games, answer is "probably not much after first week".
Graphics and gameplay were really awesome back then. Problem is, it was the 80'ies and I'm afraid that magic is gone today. A shame because it was some of the best time and fun moments with computers in my life. Unfortunally it will never be the same. Although Apple try to preach otherwise, computers today just have no soul unlike in the past.
As mentioned, try download some emulators and games first before spending any money.
Except 'North and South' I think nearly all my most played C64 games are in this video. Fond memories.
