Yeah that last one is a deal breaker.  I do not want to see a trend of these 3rd party games running in sub 720 in any mode.  30fps is fine, but sub HD is the equivalent of dial-up internet.  

I'm glad DOOM is there and I can appreciate Rocket League but 540p on a press release for most 3rd party games is unacceptable.

Actually, the Switch is lucky to run any 3rd party games which are initially built with home consoles in mind ... 

Doom is sub HD with dips to the low 20's in docked mode and the developers behind Rocket League wanted Switch owners to experience the game at 60 fps so 576p it is ... 

The portability is the key factor though.  I can appreciate the effort if it's 540p portable but it has to be HD docked else don't bother.

Really though mate, the Switch isn't THAT far behind the Xbox 1, which is the baseline for these games developments.
