1024 x 768 is not HD.

1920x1080 is.

It is really a semantic debate, but most people usually qualify a 720 horizontal resolution as HD and  1920 x 1080 as Full HD. There is nothing special about 1080p or 720p that make them, "HD" they were just attributed that by people as a label to distinguish them from the long standing standard of 480i/480p. 

Either way, 1024 x 768 has 16 times the number of pixels than the original DS resolution. So in comparison to the DS' very low resoluton, 1024 x 768 is indeed "High resolution."
