I'll explain it, but first let me ramble on about how some uncredible Glassdoor review means that Retro is on the verge of shutting down

Eurogamer: Leaks suggest Retro Studios making Star Fox racing spin-off (also heard by EG's sources)

You know what he meant.
They definitely should give Retro a chance to work on their own IP.
After 5 extremely polished games I think they deserve it.
Yeah, I could see Retro have Miyu and Faye playable. Probably Krystal. The original four obviously. Starwolf crew possibly including Andrew, Pigma and Panther. Katt Monroe and Bill Grey are very likely. Up in the air if they would bring in Command characters. The characters themselves weren't bad it was the story that was all over the place. Dash Bowman(Andross' grandson and cousin to Andrew. Looks up to Star Fox.), Lucy Hare(Peppy's daughter), and Amanda Toad (Slippy's wife). If they did decide to do Samus they should also do Captain Falcon.
My hope is that the game will be very unique and not a straightforward racing game. The levels could still contain a lot of design influence from Star Fox with the added elements of controlling your own speed. Have a solid single player component that is highly replayable. Also have local and online multiplayer.
I never claimed I knew what they wanted to do. I just said they deserve to work on their own project; huge difference.
Well perhaps they want to work on a new Star Fox game instead or their own projects weren't working out so well. Its almost as if you're assuming that you think the higher ups at Nintendo think they're unworthy of making their own new IP

I asked them if they had any good bbq recipes they were willing to share on Facebook and the following was the auto-reply message:
"Howdy! We're happy to hear from you but alas, we're incredibly busy making games and can't get back to all of your great questions. We love our fans! Stay tuned for more fun."
GameS. As in plural. Perhaps they are working on series of BBQ simulators :).

I thought for certain we were getting these leaks a couple of months ago because Retro was ready to reveal something at E3. But that wasn't the case obviously. I would expect a Retro game to be revealed at E3 so I'm think it's at least another year before we hear anything.
We asked insiders before E3 if that was the case and most weren't sure if it would be shown there. Most of them didn't think it was a 2018 game so that made it even more unlikely.
I think Emily said the first leak she heard about this game was in February, which is 4 months from E3, so it's very unlikely the leak would've been connected to an incoming announcement.
I still had my hopes up. LOL
I just went back through the last few Retro game announcements and they've all come at E3. So I would expect the same for this one. I suppose they could drop it at another Direct, but an E3 announcement just feels right. With that, I'm guessing a fall 2019 launch at the earliest.
I'm kind of sad there's no new rumors for this with all the sources who know of it. Maybe it's hard to get information now that its been leaked. :(
What makes you think it's false? I've seen several notable insiders claiming this is real.
