Possible, and definitely indirect citations:

Level Up Blog - N'Gai and Keightly discuss reports of "Wii Passing Xbox 360 Worldwide". This was before the Financial Times September report - meaning it was VGC or neogaf being cited.

IGN Wii - Cassamassia responds to a blog using VGC data to say that Xbox 360 will beat PS3 which will beat Wii.
