When I think of arcade games, I think of those video machines so popular before everyone had a computer and a game console. Dave & Buster's in Tri-County is a chain (this is their only local location), but they are so much more than just a game spot. The feature lots of TVs, two bars, dining areas, are an event venue, and have the game area. The games at D&B's cover a wide variety of games from those traditional arcade games to skeeball to air hockey to coin drop games to racing games featuring car or motorcycle motion activated seating (if you get car sick easily, I recommend avoiding these games.) D&B's is a fun place to go on occasion.
Sega Gameworks at Newport on the Levee is a lesser version of Dave & Buster's. They are much smaller and have a lot fewer games. Additionally, because it is in Kentucky, smoking is allowed inside and is very hard to escape. They also have a dining area, but it is much, much smaller than at D&B's. They only have one bar, too. If you're already at Newport, it's a good way to kill a little bit of time before or after dinner or a movie, but otherwise, I'd head to D&B's.

My family used to visit Jillian's on occasion, to celebrate a birthday for example. Unfortunately, Jillian's closed several years ago. The only well-known place I can think of currently is Dave & Buster's at Newport on the Levee. Though it's not technically in Cincinnati, it's mere minutes from downtown. Since it's a chain, most people know what to expect. Just your average arcade, where they offer dinner and drink menus.
