Barkley already corrected me, Switch will render games at 720p even has more power than just for 720p games. Basically, fact that Switch will run games at 720p in tablet mode doesn't mean it has power just for 720p games, and that with boost of higher clocks can run same games at 1080p in docked mode (for record I talking about Nintendo games).

Wii U was capable of running Nintendo games at 1080p@60fps like Smash Bros proved, and if Mario Kart and 3DWorld didn't do that was more because Nintendo didn't cared for it rather than the console not being capable.

So Switch being capable of running Nintendo games at 1080p is the minimum one should ask for. It's ports of PS4/X1 that will be interesting to see.

Wii U definitely didn't had power for MK8 or SM3DW running at 1080p/60fps. So on Switch I expeting 1080p/30-60fps for Nintendo games, hardly that will be same situation for majority of PS4/XB1 ports, but we could have 1080/900p for some less demanding games Just Dance, Lego games, Indies...but for more complex and graphically demanding games best guess is 720p while 540p in portable mode.
