Why did the Genesis have higher resolution when it's over 2 years older?

I don't know the exact answer to that, but I've read that Nintendo basically never wanted to move past the NES and only did the SNES because of the competitive pressure from Genesis/Sega and NEC in Japan. And the SNES was developed to me "modular" in the sense that they anticipated the expansion chips that were put in carts to enhance what the base console could do.

So I assume it's a cost thing.
