Who cares, just let me know if I can emulate it (i won't play any of the games anyway)

You're not going to be able to and the sneed from the emulation community is going to be beautiful drama.
The Switch was in a uniquely bad position to get emulated easily.
1. Off the shelf Tegra X1 from 2015 (absurdly well documented from being in the Shield TV and Pixel C tablet.) Launch units had an unpatchable hardware exploit that was only fixed with a respin/die shrink of the X1.
2. The Switch uses a weird extension of the 3DS OS kernel, and that system had been cracked wide open for years.
Those really aren't going to be the case with the Switch 2. It seems like it'll be A78 cores and an ADA derived GPU. The A78 has roughly comparable IPC to Zen 2 in the other vidya systems.
It'll be harder to emulate this system due to a lack of documentation and dramatically increased system requirements. I doubt you'll see an emulator during the lifespan of the console.

The fact that so many consoles have been hacked because of an exploit in a shitty shovelware game fills me with joy

Tegra T239 has been the rumor for like a year now https://old.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/17mxrgd/inside_nvidias_new_t239_processor_the_nextgen/k7p2cxz/?context=8
TLDR
CPU side should be around half, maybe less, of the CPU performance of current gen consoles
GPU is rumored 3.5 TFLOP docked, less than Series S, around half of something like RTX2060
Memory probably 12GB, maybe 16 but probably not
Decent uplift over OG Switch but somewhat underwhelming considering the console should probably last until 2032 or so

Nvidia hasn't made anything in the mobile segment in a long time now, it's most probably gonna be an AMD APU like every other console.
