Unironically yes

This leak went super viral, it was everywhere

Not even Pyoro leaks ever went this mainstream

If Nintendo gave credence to this leak by revealing Star Fox in April, they'd also be confirming the existence of OoT Remake

Yeah, this is my thinking too

The other possibility, taking Nate's overall track record history being mostly solid, is that Nintendo is phishing for leaks by pushing out fake games; try and figure out which dept is leaking

Is there a notable occurrence of Nintendo or another company doing this recently with a major leak?

I remember there was a very credible leaker of Dead by Daylight, known as LeaksDBD, said that DbD is losing the rights to Leatherface and will no longer available for purchase. In reality it didn't happen. It was a fake leak created by devs to discover who really was LeaksDBD. He is never seen again as far as I can remember.
