Megami Ibunroku: Persona will be ported as simply Persona this time around, but will be the same game that was released originally on the PlayStation back in 1996.
Persona follows a group of high school students that inadvertently summoned a horde of demons upon their city through the mysterious "Persona Ceremony," which also awakened them to the powers of Persona.
The port will go on sale in Japan on April 29, 2009 on PSP, and will feature new cell-shaded 3D FMVs at key scenes throughout the game.
Growlanser is an SRPG that was released on the PlayStation in 1999, and the first game in the series. It follows a young man who was found as a baby by the court wizardess as he grows up. It was prophesied when the child was a baby that he weilds both the darkness to destroy the world, as well as the light to save it.
The PSP port will be available on May 14, 2009 in Japan, in celebration of the Growlanser's 10th anniversary. It is currently unknown if the port will have any new features.
I'll take translation requests for Persona below in the comments. Translation requests for Growlanser will be available once clearer scans surface.

I'm down for both of these when/if they reach the US. Persona seems like a near lock, but Growlanser has an iffy localization history. Here's hoping Atlus USA picks up both of these.
Persona definitely looks like a winner. I just can't imagine that not coming over here.
And yeah, Grownlanser could really go either way... Even Atlus USA doesn't seem to like those games. Weird, since they tend to localize other weird stuff. :/
Yeah, if we're receiving such unlikely fare as Class of Heroes and My World My Way, you'd think they'd go for something that at least has some name recognition. Maybe XSEED will pick it up if Atlus passes.
