Problem of TV standards. So from the very beginning console games were locked to some TV standard.
On PCs however, back in CRT days, you could choose your refresh rate, but once LCDs become widespread, 60Hz crept in as standard.
That's why very old GPU benchmarks had cut-off point at 40FPS, that was considered as low as you should go without controls/presentation becoming too sluggish.
