Why is there more than one ground on Pin-outs?

What I know is that, for example, the Intellivision plug'n'play system - two grounds, if you connect both together the system doesn't work right; the buttons on one side (d-pad) have a common ground and the other side (buttons) have a different one. They need to work independently.
I don't have the electronics knowledge to explain this, but I know it to be true as I experimented on the board in question. As someone else mentioned, this situation happens on some other gadgets too, so is not unique, but annoying none the less.
