It is originally from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda|The Legend of Zelda]]''; the six notes played upon use are identical, as is the whirlwind it summons that whisks the player to another location.

| ===''Super Mario Bros. 3''===

| {{multiframe|[[File:Whistle Map SMB3.png]] [[File:Warp Whistle.png]]|align=left}}
| |
| In ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', using a Magic Whistle summons a whirlwind that takes [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] to World 9, the [[Warp Zone (Super Mario Bros. 3)|Warp Zone]], where the player can skip ahead to the start of a later [[world]]. Using the Magic Whistle in [[Grass Land|World 1]] allows Mario or Luigi to warp to [[Desert Land|World 2]], [[Water Land|World 3]], or [[Giant Land|World 4]]; using it in World 2 through [[Ice Land|World 6]] allows him to warp to [[Sky Land|World 5]], World 6, or [[Pipe Land|World 7]]; and using it in World 7, [[Dark Land|World 8]], or World 9 allows him to warp to World 8.
| |
|
| |
|
| There is a total of three Magic Whistles: Two of them are in World 1, and one is in World 2. Each Magic Whistle can be collected from a certain [[treasure chest|treasure box]], but only two are required to warp directly to World 8. The first Magic Whistle is obtained in [[World 1-3 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 1-3]] by holding Down on {{button|nes|Pad}} while standing on the [[Semisolid Platform#Super Mario Bros. 3|White Block]] at the end of the [[level]], so that Mario or Luigi drops behind the background, and then quickly getting behind the black curtain at the end of the level before the White Block's effect wears off. Behind the curtain is a secret [[Toad House]], whose single box contains the Whistle. The second Magic Whistle is obtained in {{world-link|1|fort|World 1-Fortress}} by [[fly]]ing above the ceiling at the end of the first room, where there is a door hidden above the top of the screen. The door leads to a small secret room where a treasure box contains the Magic Whistle. Clearing {{world|1|fortress}} in that way does not open its lock on the map. The third Magic Whistle can be obtained by defeating the [[Boomerang Bro]]ther in World 2-[[File:FireBro-Map-SMB3.png]] to obtain a [[Hammer]], which must be used to break the rock at the top right of the map screen, opening a secret passage behind a palm tree. The passage contains a Toad House (with a [[Frog Suit]]) as well as a pair of [[Fire Bro]]thers. Defeating both Fire Brothers awards the player the Magic Whistle. According to [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]'s [[letter]] upon the player completing [[Giant Land]], the Magic Whistle had been stolen and taken to the sand dunes on the east side of [[Desert Land]].
| | A '''Warp Whistle''' is an item from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Using it sends [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) to the [[Warp Zone]]. From here, he can skip up to four worlds. If a second whistle is used while in the warp zone, then the player is taken directly to the World 8 Pipe. |

| [[File:WarpWhistle Glitch.png|thumb|The Magic Whistle of World 5-1, exclusively obtainable via a glitch in the Family Computer version]]
| | There are only 3 whistles in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'': |
| Exclusively in the original [[Family Computer]] release, there is a [[List of Super Mario Bros. 3 glitches|glitch]] that allows the player to obtain a fourth Magic Whistle in [[World 5-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 5-1]]. The glitch can cause the treasure box to appear at the end of the level instead of in its usual location. The glitch is performed by reaching the end of the level, then turning around and flying above the wall of blocks until the player hears the sound of a treasure box appearing. After that, if the player returns to the [[Goal (Super Mario Bros. 3)|goal]], they will notice glitched graphics (as it is not supposed to be possible to activate a treasure box and the goal simultaneously). If the player then hits the goal from the far left corner, the treasure box will teleport to the goal, and picking it up will earn the player either five [[extra life|extra lives]] or a Magic Whistle. Later versions shorten the level by replacing the [[Warp Pipe]] to this area (as well as a [[Buster Beetle]]) with the goal in international [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] releases and [[reissue]]s.

| |
| In ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', this item (now known as the '''Recorder''', its original name from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda|The Legend of Zelda]]'') makes a reappearance after 28 years of absence and in time for its 30th anniversary debut. It is hidden in the [[Green Energy Plant]], in a course specially dedicated to ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. Mario must [[flip]] into 3D and go beyond the [[Goal Pole]] at one of the ends of the area. At first, it looks identical to its appearance in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', but after Mario tosses it into the air, it becomes a photo-realistic recorder. The Recorder can also be purchased from the [[Wringer]] for 300 [[coin]]s and sold as a card for one coin. A replica version of the Recorder can be collected from the [[Battle Spin]]. It is also given developers' notes in the game's digital manual.

|
| When the Recorder Card is used in battle, the scenery changes to a field and the Recorder plays the original melody. Three more Recorders appear and play the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' [[Coin Heaven]]/[[Sky Land]]/[[Warp Zone (Super Mario Bros. 3)|Warp Zone]] theme, which causes a [[tornado]] to appear. The tornado lifts any enemies into the air and causes them to plummet back down. The effect of the attack is increased if the player presses the buttons on the [[Wii U#Wii U GamePad|Wii U GamePad]] when the Recorder is playing the initial melody.
| | Obtained by falling through (holding down on the control pad while standing on it) the last white block in the level and making Mario's way to the end of the stage while behind the scenery. |

| | '''World 1 Fortress''' |
| *In the series [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'']], the Recorder reappears in the [[The Legend of Zelda (television series)|television series]] and [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Valiant Comics)|comic]] under the name "Magic Whistle"; in addition, its melody has been remixed throughout the series, most notably as the title theme of ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''.
| |
| *During the climax of ''[[List of references in film#The Wizard|The Wizard]]'', Haley tells Jimmy to seek out the Magic Whistle (which she refers to as the "Magic Flute") in the World 1 Fortress, which he succeeds in doing. However, it is unclear how Haley even knew of its existence, as ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' was a game that the characters had never played before.
| |
| *In ''[[Leaping Lizards]]'', a [[Magic Silver Whistle]] is the prize of the [[International Mushroom Games]], which are held in a neutral area of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] every six years. [[Iggy Koopa]] is the whistle's current holder, and the heroes compete against him in order to reverse the spell placed on the [[Mushroom King]], who was transformed into a rabbit.
| |
| *In the 2006 version of [[Nintendo Monopoly]], the Warp Whistle is referenced by the [[Coin Block]] "Advance to Go" card.
| |
| *[[Mystical Whistle]], the name of a [[Sammer Guy]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', is a reference to the Magic Whistle.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *An arrangement of the tune for the Recorder can be heard if the player wins three times in a row in the minigame [[Loves Me...?]] from ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''.
| |
| *If the player uses a Magic Whistle while on the canoe in World 3, the player can go off to the left and leave the Warp Zone map. However, they cannot get back and are stuck there unless they have another Magic Whistle. This was fixed in the international versions. The ''Super Mario All-Stars'' version fixed this glitch in a different manner by not allowing the player to use a Magic Whistle while on a canoe.
