The reason there is a shortage of wii play is because there is a shortage of wii remotes. The game itself is easy to produce, but unless it has a wii remote with it they cant sell it.
Funnily enough my local gamestation has stackfuls of wii plays this morning. Suspect they are sold out now tho. (Southend Branch)
You only other choice is to buy the bundle offer on Game with Mario Galaxy (best game on wii)
Unfortunately though, the wii remote situation will probabaly last as long as the wii stock shortages.
Good luck.

Hi I was hunting all over for it, I eventually got one by ordering off Amazon.de.
I ordered Wii Play and a Nunchuk for about £45 delivered.
Why don't you try there

Check out your local Blockbuster on Saturday mornings - mine had 3 Wii Plays at 10.30am. They were still available at 2pm this afternoon.
Suppose it depends which part of the UK you're in.

Cant think what time they open. Might be 11am on Sunday. You can find their number on the gamestation website.
Goodluck and let me know if you get one!
EDIT: Here is there number: 01702 617333
Phone before going in. They will put one aside for you no problems and might save a wasted journey. And pck up one of them German sausages from the market in town! Bloody nice they are!

amazon.fr were selling them yesterday - and you can order the Play and Wiimote for UK delivery, unlike the console.
