The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy is a 2000 pinball video game developed by Disney Interactive Studios and Left Field Productions and published by Nintendo of America, Inc. for the Game Boy Color. First released in North America on September 24, 2000, it was later made available in PAL regions on March 16, 2001.
In The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy, the player interacts with two pinball tables based on on the Disney Princess Ariel and her daughter Melody. Borrowing gameplay elements from previously released pinball titles, it features 16 minigames. The tables and the minigames include references from the Walt Disney Pictures' 28th animated feature film The Little Mermaid (1989) and its direct-to-video sequel The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea (2000). The game supports up to four players through alternating tables.
Disney Interactive Studios agreed to develop The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy alongside Left Field Productions as part of its focus on children's entertainment software. The game received mixed reviews; commentators praised its visuals and appeal to girls, while others questioned the decision to base a title on The Little Mermaid property. The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy received comparisons to Pokémon Pinball (1999) from critics, who disagreed over which game was better.
