All this talk about Retro Studios, I agree! The sheer length of time that they've been quiet for though, is so unusual. Given that by now, they should have at least been credited with something, like helping develop engines, providing consulting work for other Nintendo studios, etc ... But nope, nothing. Nintendo is investing a lot there, but to what end? Unless it's floundering or something lol.

And they're amazing :D More news about them is always welcome!

Not really, they are a tiny studio that releases a game once or twice a generation.

Also, I think people are giving Retro Studios a little too much weight. People say it's because they developed Metroid Prime, but that dev team doesn't actually exist anymore - they had all left the studio about a decade ago. Even much of the original DKC Returns team is no longer there.

Retro Studios 2017 is an almost totally different studio with totally different people than Retro Studios from 2002 to 2008.

I think that your point about Retro being mostly different is entirely fair. It has been many years since Prime, so I doubt that the majority of those individuals would still be at the same company, yeah =p
