Games get canned all the time. Some near finished often. It just happens. Near finished doesn't mean they were satisfied with it. May as well consider Pikmin 4 canned at this point. It was supposedly near finished 5 years ago. Project Robot was canned tho we don't know how far along it was.

If they did make a game and it was unsatisfactory and not fit for launch, that's even further evidence that Retro has lost their way.

It happens with studios to can far along with games. You're reading too much into anything. You're just assuming based on practically nothing. Studios in trouble don't make a bunch of new hires in a few months. NST is still around making games and Project Hammer was pure hell to work on.
