That's because Kirby is made by HAL Laboratory, a company that almost exclusively work on Kirby. Donkey Kong Country however, is developed by Retro Studios, which is a company that have been very busy developing a Metroid game.

Just get another team to do it. 

I don't think giving an IP to a new team is something Nintendo does lightly. It's hard to find a team that can make a Donkey Kong Country game as good as the ones that Retro made. It would be a lot easier for them to just wait until Metroid is finished and then maybe let them develop the next DKC game.
