Cheers for the comments chaps!

I do intend to do some funkiness to the control panel. The plan is to use the white lines from the original Blip console and have something very retro looking.

As I was designing the control panel in Photoshop I had a bit of a lightbulb moment (literally). Using this design I can use some funky lighting to indicate the controls used for each game without lighting up the whole button/stick/trackball whatever.

Anyway - I'm still quite a way away from the control panels as I intend to do them last but this should give you an idea of what I'm thinking of, first unlit, then as a 2 button stick game...

Trackball that close to the side of the case leads to smashed fingers/hands imho.

Very good point and thanks for bringing it up. While it feels good on paper I obviously haven't tried it in the flesh so don't know what problems may arise. I intend to mock the panel up before i do it for real so hopefully this will help refine the layout.
