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.

We wont know if they dont try. Retro could still just help out in ways that wouldnt take away from the development of MP4. I mean F-Zero and Star Fox has no teams either, so I guess they are dead forever then?

They could try, but that would be a unecessary risk. All of the teams that Nintendo work with already have certain franchises that they work with and it would make much more sense to just let those developers work on games that they have already proven to be good at making and just keep DKC on hold until Retro is ready to make one.
