The game doesn't seem like it runs horribly. The only performance issue we know of is the Wii U version which had that weird frame duplicate problem.

Handheld mode will obviously be different, but I don't think it'll be that big. After all, I'm pretty sure most people will player single player mode undocked (meaning 720p @ 60fps). Even 2 player mode would be torture.

720p@60fps for single player is a given. It's very probable that it will still be be 720p@60fps in tabletop mode (two players). Three or four player splitscreen won't be available undocked.

What if you were playing 4 player spilt screen but then undocked the Switch? Will it just pause it and  say put it back on?
