Bayonetta announcement is nothing to get excited about

Budget versions of the game, not a sequel.

The internet got pretty excited earlier this week when Bayonetta director Yusuke Hashimoto said he had some "information related to Bayonetta" to share.

Obviously this meant we were going to get the first details on Bayonetta 2. Turns out that's not what Hashimoto was talking about.

What we're getting instead - in Japan at least - is Bayonetta budget re-releases for Xbox 360 and PS3. The repackaged versions will be out September 2, 2010 and will also include trailers for a collection of SEGA titles including Vanquish.
