I recently picked up a "working" Arkanoid kit.

The game boots up fine but the spinner just makes the paddle vibrate left and right a tiny bit.
any ideas on what to try?? I tried plugging in 1/2 of a track ball with the same wico optics and it did the same thing.

very frustrating

You probably need to rebuild the optical PCB's or replace them.
 
Assuming your trackball was working before, it sounds like one of a couple things:

1) the wiring harness is wrong. Double check it.

2) the input IC is blown on the board.
