No new Metroid games were announced in this Nintendo Direct, but there were a couple Metroid items of note.

First off, a sequel to last December's Wii U eShop game NES Remix was announced, and this time Metroid is one of the 16 games featured. Other games featured in the retro mashup NES Remix 2 include: Kid Icarus, Wario's Woods, Ice Hockey, and Punch-Out!!. NES Remix 2 will be available in North America and Europe on April 25.

Also releasing in April will be Metroid Fusion as one of the first GBA games available on Wii U eShop.
