It's probably for the best as it should ensure stable work for the future.
Disband the whole studio and use the capital and resources to actually make games.
If you look at how Nintendo's dev teams operate, they focus on one or two main game series and try to get a new entry out for every system since Nintendo games are usually evergreen sellers. I imagine once Prime 4 is out, Retro will either move on to Prime 5 or go back and finish remastering the rest of the original trilogy.
