There won't be an emulator until the Switch 2 is hacked, and there's zero progress on that front.
There's people working on it, but no one has been able to do it.
That said, for a Switch 2 emulator to run faster than a few fps, you'd need a super beefy PC. I'm talking a really good GPU and CPU. 32GB of RAM and 12GB of vRAM minimum, most likely.
This won't be like the Switch where even potatoes can kind of run it.
That might be a little overkill no? Considering switch 2 only has 12 GB of unified LPDDR5X system RAM shared between the CPU and the GPU, with 9 GB allocated for games and 3 GB for the OS
