I dont think so, I think new Switch 3D Mario is 1080p/60fps for instance. I think Nintendo wants to have standard resolution for all their games, not that majority of their games runs at 1080p and that only few runs at 720p.

I think it really depends. Games like Mario Kart couldn't hit 1080p because the graphical choices Nintendo made. Smash Bros at 1080p definitely had an impact on visual shortcomings in the game, so in both instances I think the  target resolution was a design choice. The most sensible thing to do is to approach each game individually and see what will help the experience. 

Yup, it doesn't make sense to have a standard resolution for all Nintendo games, that would require them to purposefully hold themselves back in other areas.
