The Mega Hit Series was a budget label for re-released Sega Mega Drive games in North America. Little is known about the requirements for this label, but it is assumed that the game must have sold many copies before acquiring it. North America also had the Sega Classic Series for older games which were re-released, so it is also assumed the Mega Hit Series only applied to games which reached this milestone quite late (post 1994), or after Majesco were given the license to distribute Sega products. A similar situation was seen in Australia with the Sega Gold Collection and Sega Platinum Collection budget labels.
Games under this label were distributed in cardboard boxes to keep manufacturing costs down.
