I couldn't imagine either that a dock would be $90 or a grip $40.
The headset would need some kind of inside out tracking with a camera for example, or it will be limited to rotational tracking only which causes motion sickness more easily. 720p is doable if you keep the fov lower which also reduces motion sickness. Limited to 66 degrees the perceived resolution would be the same as psvr. It won't be as immersive yet maybe a 75 degree fov would be a decent compromise.
As for Switch's power. Highly stylized games work best anyway with the current tech. Windwaker style should have no problem running on switch at 720p 90fps. Which is one of the key questions ofcourse, can the Switch run at low persistence 90hz.
