Firstly, not exactly where this post belongs. I know where not to put it, but finding the most obvious home is difficult so I stuck it here because it

I don't know. Will the whole Spongebob thing last long enough to justify spending the money on printing sideart and control panel art? Even if it does, will your little girl still be into it in a couple of years? Those are questions you need to answer. I still label "Spongebob" as fad. It may pull a "Simpsons" (be a 'fad', then dip into 'cult status' and then up to 'pop culture') but that doesn't happen all that often.
I've always favored 'simple' over 'complex' when it comes to artwork. Little arrows around the joysticks, maybe some text (like Player 1 Start, etc.) and a simple background. There are some stunning examples of very detailed art, but then I look at the picture and I have to stare at it for 15 minutes to find the joysticks amid the busy colors. That's just me, though. Opinions may and will vary.
Anyway, anything you do is ultimately your choice and you can always change what you don't like. Good luck.

Obviously your theme has to be "Frankenpanel" with artwork that call to mind Tales from the Crypt covers featuring a cartoon-stylized-mad-scientist version of you weilding various overkill machinery (Chainsaw, plasma cutter, jackhammer, Jaws of life) to mangle classic cabs (four comic panels, one for each player's position). Side art is you with the Frankencab on a slab surrounded by various Tesla gear shouting "it's ALIVE!". Possibly with addition background sideart of fleshlike stitching (Possibly acting as a border between different shades of orange, since that's the color you want to go.
