On top of my head:

Bubble Bobble (because the C64 port was pretty awesome)

Great Giana Sisters (Mario with superior Music, don't hit me!)

Elite (just because)

Maniac Mansion & Zak McKracken (Old Lucasfilm Games glory)

Archon: The Light and the Dark (because I wear the box art as tattoo on my calf... and it was a pretty good game too, for us it was basically the holo chess from Star Wars)

Emlyn Hughes International Soccer (Microprose Soccer was the better game, but we played countless tournaments with EHIS)

Paradroid (to collect street cred with the c64 crowd ;))

Pretty good site for information/reviews concerning C64 games is Lemon64.

Oh right, joysticks... I mostly used Quickshot 2, Competition Pro or the Konix Speedking.

Regarding the model this blog might be helpful.

When it comes to the disc drive I would recommend the 1571.

And this is just a matter of taste but I always prefered the sound of the old 6581 SID.

As far as I remember the spells for curing status effects were called "Rip Something", but "Restoratives" (Item) might also work?

Sorry, it was a long time ago...

I would have voted every other DQ (main series) over Bastion, but unfortunately DQ IX never really clicked for me...

My favourites would be:

Eternal Afflict "Paint it Black"

God's Girlfriend "California Dreamin'"

I just pretend there were only three movies, works also for Indiana Jones and Star Wars ;)

@hamst3r: The Return of the Living Dead 2 (source, site for cuts in German versions). The movie is awesome, like the whole series...

Edit: this time hopefully with text...

RIP :(

Just throwing some personal favourites in here:
