With Donkey Kong being the next major release in July, I'm sure it will get some time, but since MP4 has already gotten two trailers, I could easily see June and July being enough time for marketing to do its thing going into August. With a Pokemon Presents already being announced too, I think that means ZA won't get much time, if any at all, during a June Direct, which is likely going to be around 40 minutes, again leaving plenty of time for MP4, especially since Nintendo is going to want at least three if not a few more 1st party IPs making an appearance to set up the rest of the year.
But, it's all speculation, obviously, so I could be way off. I just think the reason ZA isn't November is because something else is slotted for that month, and I personally can't see it being Metroid.
