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.

 

There are others in the thread ioi linked to...but Forbes, Fortune, Washington Post, Ny Post, etc are all pretty big

Well we have NPD beat in terms of content on wikipedia

Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist. Especially if you think the moon landing was faked.

I need a refference for NPD returning to having public data. Or did that happen?

Nice work guys! The article is looking much better.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
