South Park (Pinball)

This page details one or more prototype versions of South Park (Pinball).

The prototype ROM for the South Park pinball machine is infamous for its video mode, which Comedy Central demanded be disabled shortly after release (though ROMs with it enabled are available from private sellers). Aside from this controversial mode, there are a few other differences.

Carpet Racing Mode#

This mode, activated by shooting Chef's hole when the mystery light is lit, has the player, as Stan, mash the flippers to beat Cartman at a carpet-munching race to impress Ms. Ellen as the bigger lesbian, based on the episode "Tom's Rhinoplasty". This mode is also present when adult speech is disabled, albeit without the sound clips referring to lesbians, making the context of the mode somewhat vague.

Some of the voice clips pertaining to this mode can still be found in the final ROM.

Stan: I can't wait for Ms. Ellen to see what a raging lesbian I am!

Sheila: What what WHAT?

Cartman: I'm a bigger lesbian than you!

Chef: Say what?

Stan: Hey! That was easy!

Stan and Cartman make this rather gross slurping noise when moving.

Sound Changes#

This page or section needs more audio. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough audio. Please fix this. Specifically: Rip the extra ball jingle from the prototype and the final.

The prototype contains sound clips with a lot more dirty language than the final.

To do: List what works with final CPU+display ROMs and prototype sound ROMs.

Other Changes#

• The extra ball jingle is different in the prototype.
• The music doesn't change when Mr. Hankey pops out of the toilet.
• Stan's mode music does not have its own theme, but instead it borrows the theme song from Mr. Mackey/Volcano mode.

Other Changes#

• The default replay value is 150,000,000 points. The final dropped this to 120,000,000.

Proto	Final

• The intro for Mr. Mackey's mode is a lot simpler, along with misspelling his name as "Mackie" (it's spelled correctly in all other instances). The switch score was also upped from 400,000 to 500,000 in the final.
• The Volcano Wizard Mode's animation does not implement proper animation in this prototype, but instead it shows a placeholder text that says "EFFECT 6C" and has a text-based instruction at the beginning of this mode.
