Why is Splatoon 2 still stuck at 720p? Why are most Switch games full HD?

Yup I was wrong, so I will correct me, only one 1st party Wii U game doesnt run at full 720p but actually at dynamic 720p resolution, on other hand we have 3 full 1080p games, while all other are 720p whitout dynamic resolution.

I didnt said that future Switch 1st party games will not run below 1080p, I just said that is obvious that Nintendo is aiming higher resolution than 720p with Switch, and that most of 1st party games will be 900-1080p.

I still wouldn't rule out the possibility of 720p first party games, especially with Splatoon 2 being 720p only a few months out from launch. Games rarely see major resolution boosts so late in development.

I also dont rule out of possibility of 720p 1st party game, but I expecting that majority will be 900-1080p. If we talk about development, Switch is different compared to previous Nintendo consoles, because they are working on two modes and two resolutions, portable and docked, so everything is possible.
