Targets floor plans are mostly universal throughout.... there are slight variants from store to store but for the most part it's the same. Which is why I can go to a 2 story Target in CA and go to the exact shelf for the item I'm looking for.

As for what market I am in? I was at an ultra low volume store in the Chicago suburbs. Only made about 6-10 million a year but now I'm in an ultra high volume store in West Milwaukee which makes about 60 million a year.

Niether are Super Targets either.

You're honestly talking about 36 - 4' long (x 8' tall) sections of glassed in shelving?  So, 144 linear feet of retail space:

START<----------------------------------------------------- 144'-------------------------------------------------------->END

I've never seen that in a big box retailer.  Even the largest showcase gaming area at this particular retailer isn't that large, and I don't even think that exists anymore.  Never have I seen that much linear footage in gaming except at GameStop or Play-n-Trade.

One of the people I used to work with now appears to be working at the retail side of things, he may be involved in scoping out the competition, I'll have to ask him where his employer stands in terms of shelf space.  However, from what I've seen locally, they are on par with the competition.

btw...you aren't referring to 4' wide x 4' tall shelving units are you?  That'd still be a lot of retail space and more than I've ever seen that I recall.
