The magic flute is a powerful instrument used by The Pied Koopa in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "The Pied Koopa". The Pied Koopa first uses the magic flute to lure the Mushroom children of Pastaland to his castle. He then holds the kidnapped children as ransom, in order to exchange them for the citizens' spaghetti.

After Mario and Luigi rescue the children, The Pied Koopa tells Mouser that he is going to put Mouser in full charge of the children after he lures them back to the castle. However, Mouser refuses to deal with the children anymore, so he pulls the lever that drops the drawbridge, causing Koopa to fall into the moat and lose the magic flute.

Mario and Luigi are also able to use instruments to lure the Mushroom kids. Despite this, the instruments they use are improvised pipes from The Pied Koopa's castle basement, implying that the real magic is actually from the song that they play.
