You could never have enough bandwidth, there is no such thing as too much bandwidth. Switch 2 has lower bandwidth and slower speed then base PS4. That 12gb or RAM means nothing.
Sames for RTX 2050 Mobile...RTX 3050 Mobile is too powerful to be compared with the alleged Tegra 239 chip that will power the Switch 2.
It should be a bit weaker than that one:
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 A Mobile Specs
NVIDIA GA106, 1343 MHz, 1792 Cores, 56 TMUs, 32 ROPs, 4096 MB GDDR6, 1500 MHz, 128 bit
Arguing about power with a Nintendo console is silly. Who cares? The games will be great. Only console worth owning.
If it's not powerful enough it won't get third party support.
Switch got ports of Witcher and Kingdom Come Deliverance. Switch 2 will mop up on third party software, especially 3rd Japanese software.
Yeah and the GBA got ports of street fighter alpha 3 I believe...
C'mon the switch can barely play those games, they might as well not exist. It will receive japanese games because those are tailor made for Nintendo hardware bar some exceptions like final fantasy.
But the switch has to run games all the way through 2033. If it's barely at PS4 hardware level things will get complicated down the line.

I honestly doubt that amount of shader processors. If it has half the bandwidth of T234 then it probably has a GPU about half as big.
I don't even remember where they took the 1536 number from.
We're probably looking at half of a GA107, which would be:
1280 shader processors
40 TMUs
16 ROPs
40 Tensor Units
16 Raytracing Units
1MB L2 cache
The closest graphics card to this should be a super underclocked Nvidia A2 but good luck finding games benchmarks of that, considering it's a headless card.
If they can barely play the games but 3rd parties want them on the console, it's a good thing for Nintendo.
150 million hardware sales is hard to turn down.
