You have convinced me to buy a spinner! (Now with added bling spinner goodness!)
TheShanMan:
Yeah, but do you have a trackball? If so, try playing it with a trackball - I think the game is much more playable that way.

Gyruss and Time Pilot

TRON. Disc of TRON and Star Trek are the reasons I put a spinner on my CP. I like other but those are my favs.

Yes I've played it with both.
However the OP most likely does not have a trackball considering he's playing Arkanoid with a joystick, so it's worth mentioning as a game he could play with a spinner.

Kick IS A SPINNER GAME.
It has a trackball shaped dial, but it only moves horizontally, so its officially
a horizontally mounted spinner.
Playing kick with a trackball will lead to inaccurate control results, because the
axis is spinning vertically at times, and not registering the horizontal. So, its
much better to use a hardware axis limited device, as intended by the games
designers.
I have to agree that a Spinner is most necessary for many great games listed already. Cosmic Chasm, Mad Planets, Tron & Discs of Tron, Star Trek, and Warlords, Tempest, all the Driving games like Turbo, Super Sprints, Off Road..etc. Spinners even work fine with 260 degree wheel games such as Outrun.
However, rather than recomending 1 spinner... I say get at least two. 2+ player
driving games and Warlords alone are worthy of it.
You can always mount them horizontally if you dont have the space. (on front
of control panel - like volume dials)
Dont forget to add sets of analog gas pedals too.
