The actual final Saturn had HD capability before any HD standards existed. Sanity is not a strong point of Sega's hardware designs

Also, my guess is the crazy multi-monitor maps to a theoretical consumer unit the same way Multi32's did to System 32: the single-screen version gets all the graphics layers on one screen, the multi-screens get fewer layers per screen (and a separate sprite layer per screen).
