Is it possible to hit a homerun with button swing

I don't think this qualifies as a demo impression. Does anyone know if its possible to hit a homerun with button swing? Or is it just a contact swing?

Do you mean contact swing? I have played a bunch of demo games and only hit hr's with power swing.

Yes. Definitely. I have hit several with the 'A' button on the 360.

Last year the button swing = contact swing which doesn't have nearly as much power. It's possible to hit HRs that way but it's much harder.

Re: Is it possible to hit a homerun with button swing

I was wondering this myself. Talking here about using "button' swinging.

Is there a slider that adjusts ONLY human power, that would probably solve the problem if there is a lack of power.

You think seeing as there is only one option for button swinging, X button on PS3, that it would be different than a contact swing using analog (power wise) as it has two options, power and contact. But who knows for sure.

Yes, there is. At least there was last year.

Good to hear. I use the stick, but last year I remember reading that there weren't enough homeruns with classic hitting, so I'm glad it's been addressed.
