Lol @marketig propaganda of big corporations and who fall for it.
It could've lasted more than an hour also... or that's out of the question for the company with bigger supply in US?

Unlikely, companies put themselves in the best light they can. If they could say "sold 60,000 in an hour" that'd be far more impressive than "peaked at 1k per minute" because if they got 60,000 in an hour they likely peaked at better than 1k per minute.
@OP: You can't actually say MS sold more at peak because you have no idea what Sony's peak was as it has not been reported. All you have is an average over 27 minutes for this latest shipment.
...
According to the other thread, no microsoft fan will find that impressive
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

We're talking about Amazon here not MS. I don'y think Amazon is doing any PR for MS and every shipment they get from MS, gets sold out within hours. And they get them frequently.

fair point, didn't notice that was a statement from Amazon. Well that means two things, one: they'd have the sales charts exactly so it's unlikely that that's an average over an hour or so and is likely just a minute otherwise they would have chosen another peak to report and two: you're correct they are in no way beholden to MS so there's no reason they would say only the best information they could so it's perfectly possible that One has sold more on Amazon than the PS4.
...
That was at peak TIME I so probably only for a couple min. The fact that they never gave a figure = less sales than PS4 probably.

Indubitably.








My prediction threads:
Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)
PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)
Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right
Like some already said, only giving out the peak number can be misleading. Still kind of impressive.
