How to unlock the Massive Dinger! achievement in Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings - Definitive Guide

I started off using Exotonic's way, but after some tweaking, here's the exact settings I used to finally get this one:

* Exhibition game
* Play as Sirloins
* Play against Wideloads
* Set Ego to 0
* MotorYard ball park
* Skill Boost set to High

The Wideloads have relatively poor pitching; you can hit damn near everything they throw at you, especially since the Ego setting will auto-aim for the pitch for you. The key here is to use the cn_X power hit to try and get the most powerful hit you can (hold it to charge up your swing, then release to start the swing--higher number when you release X is better). Additionally, you want to tap cn_LSd JUST before you release cn_X. This lowers your bat just a bit so you can more easily get 'under' the ball. You should be getting homeruns damn near every hit, so just focus on timing your release to knock the ball as straight down center field as you can, but this stadium gives you a lot more leeway than I was having with other stadiums.

If you're getting a lot of pop-fly outs, you're hitting cn_LSd too early and/or holding it too long.

It does boil down to luck somewhat, because it also depends on where the AI places the ball over the plate. Being able to hit the ball with the tip of your bat is going to get you further than it being close to your batter, but you can't really control that part. Once I started doing cn_LSd just before releasing in addition to the above, I had the achievement less than 15 batters later.

Thank you!!

I was able to do this following this formula, and I think the "Skill Boost" helped. Previously, I was playing through a season (...at 18 StarPoints while having a couple players with 'power' boosts, but I do not know if those carry over into the exhibition mode...) and am regularly getting in the 450-498 range. So I did play a quick exhibition game and this worked with less than one whole roaster rotation!!!

I kept hitting 498 and 499 feet against the CPU. I tried using two controllers and I hit 7 straight 500+ feet homeruns.

For a 500ft reference point. If you hit one straight it needs to go over the stadium wall & land on the blue vans roof or in line with that van in the carpark or beyond.
I also used 2 controllers.

I did mine in season mode with the third basemen for the Moose. I figured I'd be going for the season and playoff winner achievements anyway, so why not make the games actually count for something instead of hoping for a perfect pitch in exhibition? That and it lets you build up gear to buff your hitters.

By the second playoff game I had enough boosts that his power was rated 80. For the actual swing, I got 92 power and hit it 502' to dead center.
