By this logic, every game release hurts every game (whether that be same franchise/genre/platform/etc). Toukiden hurted SS sales in japan for instance. Do we have to take every little thing into an account?
If we are talking NSMB franchise only, Are you telling me NSMB2 would have significantly notable different lifetime sales if NSMBU never released? If so give me an example of how much.

Yes, every game release affects others to some degree. There is only so much money and time to go around and people will prioritize the use of their money and time one way or another. You are the one who said NSMB2 didn't hurt NSMBU so you were already taking it into account. You just dismissed its effects seemingly based on nothing. You still haven't presented any evidence for it having no impact on NSMBU sales.
Based on how it was tracking compared to MK7 and 3D Land, I could see an additional million or so units at this point in its life, possibly more. The bigger impact I think was on the sales of NSMBU and the Wii U itself.
