The VR side of it won't be much of a surprise what with the leak of the patent details etc and Amazon listing the Switch as compatible with their VR shopping experience. We know they have been developing VR for Switch its whether they have decided to release it commercially and whether that's at launch or later in the year.

The surprise may be the Switch screen. It could be 1080p or higher but the console only has 720p and 540p resolution output when portable.

Again though even with a 720p screen it can still be a good immersive VR experience. Let's not forget the very low resolution of many Nintendo portable products and wii and wii u. Nintendo have a track record of lower resolution products compared to the competition. If I was guessing the true resolution of the Switch screen at this point if not 720p I would guess something like a 900p screen because I believe they are quite cheap. Something like 1600x900 which would give a 800x900 resolution per eye and is a sweet spot in pricing.
