I certainly wouldn't expect that to be the case. It's not necessarily true this game has been in development for a long time - Retro will have spent time building prototypes and pitching projects to Nintendo. Who knows how long it took before this game was green-lit? 

If they do have anything else in development, I'd expect it to be a smaller title - or to be something that's not going to see the light of day for a while. If Star Fox Grand Prix is real, it may use the Mario Kart 8 engine. Also important to remember Retro handled the DKC:TF port for Switch. They might also be remastering Prime Trilogy for Switch, who knows?

DKC TF would hardly make a dent on Retro workforce.Its almost a straightfoward port with one extra charachter and resolution bumped up.Im no expect at game developemtn, but it seems to me thats a job that a group of 5 or 10 guys can do in 3 to 6 months.

Sure, it wouldn't be resource intensive - but my points is if Retro are doing multiple projects, they're likely small. If this is Retro's next new game, you can bet the majority of the studio's resources will be invested in it. Just because it's mascot-driven and a racing game doesn't mean it won't have taken time, effort and manpower to develop.
