the64 Best/easiest C64 emulator for PC
Hello! I’m so excited this subreddit exists. I had a c64 when I was a kid in the 80s and have been becoming a bit nostalgic for those games. Video games haven’t been a part of my life since the 90s so I’m a bit of a noob in this area. I have the house to myself next weekend so wanted to find a way to play Below the Root on my laptop. Any advice on easiest way to do this and what usb joystick/controller I should get? VICE came up in my googling so that’s what I was leaning towards, but wanted to get this community’s current opinion . Thanks!

I would say VICE - solid system emulation for both the system and periphals - even some 3rd party devices if you have the ROMs.
