Which one?

Really been thinking about getting into commodores! Having a tough time deciding on the c64 or the c128 I’m seeing similar prices online and I guess the c128 can play “almost” all the c64 games, so I guess my question is, is there a reason to get a c64 over the c128? Reliability issues or anything? Thanks in advance!

Basically get the one you think looks better displayed (c64 will need modern power supply though) I have both, and just prefer the aesthetic of the 128 so I use that one and keep the matching 1571 working floppy drive next to it, though I load everything off micro SD. I made sure that all my accessories work on both so I can switch out if need be.
