With console -> PC ports being easier, it'll likely become standard process for these smaller games. Console gamers bankrolling PC gaming again.

Hey it is a decent tradeoff. Without PC gamers buying dedicated GPU's, console gamers wouldn't have gotten the benefits of hardware advances that they have gotten since the 7th generation, particularly the ones that make it easier on developers (unified and programmable shaders for example.) Most dedicated GPU's would likely be made for scientific computing and industry and would consequently be expensive for it. ;)

Yeah if you have a pc and ps4 and want the best version of these Japanese games,  the ps4 is often the best to get.  All in all great news.  So happy to console games coming to PC and pc games coming to console. 

Why is that? What is the advantage of the PS4 version vs. PC version? I don't think that was even relevant to what Outlawauron was saying anyway.  

Awesome! I will wait to the requiremens to see if my laptop fits in them. If that's the case, day one for me!

What I so read on the internet is that pc ports from japanese games aren't that great or good or in this case most people hope that the port of dragon quest heroes will be better then the normal pc port from koei tecmo or square enix.

Likely a reference to the horrid state most of the Japanese console -> PC ports are in. 

Awesome!. As time passes, I really don't know if I will even be keeping my ps4 since pc is getting so many japanese games now.

This was basically my reaction also.

Ah I see. Probably the worst PC port I played from a Japanese company was the first Dark Souls. All of the problems I had (poor kb+mouse controls) and 720p graphics would not really have been alleviated if I bought the console version. I was able to use third party solutions to get the game running at 1440p and use a PS3 controller. 

I think the problem PC gamers have with Japanese ports are that they are copy and pasted from the console, and therefore don't take advantage of what PC has to offer. The last few multiplat games I've played on PC were quite decent though (Valkyria Chronicles, FFXIII - after update, and Tales of Zesteria.) For the first two the experience was better than I had on PS3, albeit only marginally so (better framerates/visuals.) Zesteria was actually quite excellent with taking advantage of what PC gaming can add.

There are additional graphics options, a great keyboard and mouse alternative to gamepad controls, etc.
