Acclaim was cashing in with console ports, and developer Crawfish Interactive had a Game Boy Color platformer fully completed and ready to ship. The cartridges were about to go to Nintendo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen Trey Parker and Matt Stone took a look at the Game Boy Color's marketing — a handheld aimed at children — and decided an adult animated series about foul-mouthed Colorado schoolboys had no business on it. Days before release, the GBC version was pulled. Parker and Stone kept prototype copies of the finished game as personal mementos, marking it as the first South Park game they ever completed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe code didn't disappear. Crawfish reprogrammed and reskinned the game twice — first as Maya the Bee in Europe, then as The New Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley in the United States. Remarkably, Maya the Bee still contains South Park assets buried in its game files to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cartridge preserves the original completed prototype — the South Park GBC game that was finished, shelved, and almost lost to history — exactly as it existed before Parker and Stone made their call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e🎮 Compatible with: Game Boy · Game Boy Color · Game Boy Advance · GBA SP\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e✅ Available in 8 shell colors: Gray, Red, Blue, Yellow, Black, Clear Blue, Green, Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnreleased 1998 prototype.
