It's a spinner. It fits in a standard button hole - so you don't have to have a mounting plate and all that other business.

I use mine as a dedicated game machine - if you intend to use it as a computer too, I suppose you would want a mouse.  :)

Have you considered using a 2 1/4" trackball, it has a much smaller footprint than the 3" trackball?

I think you should mock up your panel on cardboard. I would be very concerned that there isn't enough room to the left of the main joystick to rest your hand while using it.

Don't Robotron and Smash TV use two 8-way joysticks? That's what KLOV and MAWS say.

Perhaps you'd be best off making two removable control panels:
1. Two joysticks and two sets of buttons (no spinner no trackball), you could play Smash TV and 2 player fighters.
2. One joystick, the 3" track ball and the spinner (for everything else).
