Splatoon had DLC didn't stop them making a new game, DLC doesn't mean the whole studio is working on it.

It's safe to say Smash wont be using the free update strategy a.k.a. releasing the game while it's still being developed, thus my Mario Kart example is the better comparison. Of course not the whole studio, but it obviously means the game is gonna take longer to make without the aforementioned shortcuts.

They already have a game engine so why is 4 years too short? XBC2 reused an engine and made new assets for a new game in 3 with half the team.
