Mega Net was an online service for Brazillian owners of the Sega Mega Drive, in the vein of Japan's Sega Meganet service. As with most Brazillian products with a relation to Sega, the service was started and maintained by Sega's Brazillian distributor Tectoy was did not exist outside of Brazil.

Tectoy's Mega Net service began in late 1995, and required a proprietary Mega Net modem accessory to be inserted into the Mega Drive's cartridge slot. Similar to North America's Sega Channel, news of new Sega products and downloadable Mega Drive games were available through the service. It also appears (from looking at the main menu) to have been capable of reading email and going on the Internet (to what extent is unknown).

Several revisions of the modem were released. The significantly rarer Mega Net 2 allows for two or more players to compete online.
