History Pinball / SouthPark

[[caption-width-right:300:"This kicks ass!"]]

As one would expect, the game is based on the [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark infamous animated show]] from Creator/TreyParkerAndMattStone, and brings with it the show's notorious ToiletHumor, [[ObligatorySwearing foul language,]] and obscene attitudes. Help Stan kiss Wendy, retrieve Mr. Hankey for Kyle, give Cartman an anal probe, recruit the kids for Chef's football team, and kill Kenny repeatedly. Hit Mr. Hankey to start multiball, then flush pinballs down the toilet for the jackpot -- and be prepared to save the townsfolk in case of unexpected volcano eruptions.

* WhatTheHellPlayer: Kill Kenny, and Kyle faces the player you to say "You bastard!"

* SpiritualSuccessor: the two ''South Park''-themed tables in ''VideoGame/ZenPinball 2''.

* DummiedOut: Probably the only reason this is known for it's infamous protoype, which re-enables the VideoMode removed by Comedy Central. See VideoMode below.

* VindicatedByHistory: Though pinball fans are still not very forgiving towards this game, operators have since decided to give it a chance, as what was shocking and edgy in 1999 doesn't feel nearly as such by the 2010's. These operators soon learned that ''South Park'' earns well in public places and, despite the high prices due to demand from other operators and from fans of the TV show, they are willing to pay the price to obtain one due to its popularity with the mainstream compared to most other pinball machines.

* {{Bowdlerise}}: Mildly; the original version of the game software (see Video Mode, below) included ''more'' offensive language than what appears in the final product, such as [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch "bitch"]]. Comedy Central demanded the change soon after the game's release.

* VideoMode: The game originally had a "Carpet Munching Race" Video Mode. As Stan, the player competed against Cartman to see who could munch carpet faster and impress Ms. Ellen as the bigger Lesbian. It was disabled soon after the game's release [[ExecutiveMeddling at the insistence of Comedy Central,]] but [=ROMs=] with it enabled are available from private sellers.

The consensus among pinball players is that ''South Park'' is an easy and unbalanced game whose primary appeal is the license. Unfortunately, that also worked against the game in many locations -- even with the objectionable elements toned down, many family-friendly establishments refused to carry the game (or drew the ire of angry parents when they did), while patrons at adult-oriented venues were hesitant to play a game based on a cartoon. As a result, fans of the game often use the terms "overlooked" and "underrated" to describe it.

* VideoMode: The game originally had a "Carpet Munching Race" Video Mode. The player controlled Stan, who was competing with Cartman to see who could munch carpet faster and impress Ms. Ellen as the bigger Lesbian.

''South Park'' is a [[PhysicalPinballTable arcade pinball game]] produced by Creator/SegaPinball in 1999. It would be the last pinball game released by Sega before the pinball division was spun off as Creator/SternPinball.

* AdjustibleCensorship: The game's profanity level could be set to either "PG-13" or "G-rated". The latter replaced the offensive names and voice clips with inoffensive ones, and changed the end-of-game match sequence to a belching contest. There were also decals for covering up the offensive playfield art, such as Mr. Hankey the Christmas Poo.
