sard: there are also plenty of video arcades if you're into that sort of thing. They have every sort of game - what was interesting a few years ago when I was there is an online video game using cards that get automagically recognised it seemed like Magic: the gathering crossed with tabletop wargaming.
I'm there the week before you - leave on 11/28 - so if I see any I'll post the whereabouts on here.

There are some card game shop in MongKok area (inside sino shopping center) and some "upstairs store", I.e. shops in office building to do that (which also provide space for frequent visitor to play)
Was there once or twice only so you probably need to google a bit more.

Oriental 188 I think is the best on the HK side for a minimall type place. They have magic shops, video games, etc.
For arcades, there's a few in CWB and Wan Chai.
Off the top of my head:
Tang Lung St - center of the street, in the basement, behind Times Sq.
Causeway Bay Center 2 basement
Wan Chai - next to MTR off the corner of Thomson and Obrien, ground level.
Wan Chai - on Marsh and Hennessey next to 7-11.
Sometimes I'll go to these to kill some time.
