Nothing for me. My next physical purchases are Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Persona 3. I am probably going to buy Super Stardust HD off PSN, if it actually comes out on Thursday.

I was originally wanting Grim Grimoire a lot, but then I realized I barely played Makai Kingdom, Phantom Brave, Disgaea 2 (basically all my NIS strategy RPGs), so I'm not sure.  I'm no fan of RTS, but since Grim Grimoire is getting good reviews, I'm becoming more and more interested.  I'll wait for some impressions before I buy.

As for Hoshigami remix, I'm on the fence.  I was originally very excited since I missed out on the game on PS1, and was hoping the DS version would fix many of the issues.  However, according to RPGamer, it isn't too great (but I usually take them with a grain of salt).  Still debating about whether I should buy the PS1 version for $30, or just get the DS version.  The game does look cool (and I did like Stella Dues a lot, a game made by the same devs).

My only for sure purchase is Super Star Dust HD on PSN, but I might wait until next week to buy.

i loved psone hoshigami -- the game was great if you grokked the coinfeigm system, since it excised all the perceived difficulty when used properly. unfortunately, it was still a bit of grind-heavy game, and the music was butt-awful.

After the clunker that was Odin Sphere I think I'm gonna pass on Grim Grimoire. I haven't played a NIS game for more than about 3 hours.

If they'd put them on PSP I'd probably put up with it more, but when it comes to console gaming I can't do it.

I'm still on the edge over Odin Sphere.  Can't decide if I want it (hear lots of impressions).

Grim Grimoire ain't a NIS game, though. It's Vanillaware's deal, and NIS is just publishing. 

The RTS levels should make for better play in hour-or-so bursts than NIS's strategy stuff.

PSX Hoshigami was one of the worst strat. RPGs I've ever played...what (if any) changes did they make to the game for the DS version?

No, really, it's not.  Try reading up on the game.
