It could be possible, no one really buys toys anymore, unless its for kids like, ages 5 and under. Electronics and video games are replacing toys at an alarming rate, for example many 6 year olds already have Ipod's which means that money that was spent on the ipod is not spent on toys, which would be the norm, or at least what older people think of the norm! The money that a 6-8 year old is spending on video games is not being spent on toys etc..
I could see them splitting it into a "baby/toddler (aka ages 5 and under)" and electronics section, and a huge R-zone, which is what retail stores need IMO, much bigger video game departments. They are very successful with their baby departments from what I hear, and the supply of toys for younger kids could go in that department. This would be really good for people who are looking to find more niche games because if they had a bigger video game department they could carry more titles which would mean that games will get easier to find and certain games won't be totally ignored by retail stores.
I actually like the way TRU does things (plastic boxes for games so they do not have to have so called "display" copies), also you do not have to find an employee to open the glass case to get games out you just bring them to the register, but if the prices go up I will not shop there especially with so many other retailers to choose from.
Honestly if they go this way, they will be extremely popular, if toy sales are slaking to the point where they can't move anything then why not pull it (they do seem to have an awful lot of toy clearance lately, pretty much every toy goes on clearance almost now), they will just be giving the public what they want, which cannot be bad.
