The ESA wants to replace E3 with a bunch of buzzwords
The Entertainment Software Association is making a fresh attempt to launch a gaming event. The new project is called iicon, or the "interactive innovation conference." It's not as catchy a name as E3, and sadly for the average gaming fan, it's probably not an event they'll care about as much as E3.

On the positive side, most of the big businesses in games that would have hosted sprawling booths at Los Angeles Convention Center back in the day have already signed on to this new endeavor. Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, Disney, EA, Epic Games, Ubisoft, Square Enix, Take Two Interactive, Amazon Games and Warner Bros. Games are all named as participants.

However, the announcements on social media promote iicon as being for "visionaries," "changemakers" and "innovators," so our best guess is that this event will swing more toward the corporate side of gaming where people might use that language unironically. If that's the case, this won't really be a replacement for the heyday of E3, when studios big and small would showcase their upcoming projects and drop internet-breaking surprises. Instead, the inaugural event in April 2026 sounds like it will focus more on moving the needle, brand alignments and synergy.

Is the new AI-powered Alexa almost here? 6 things to know

Journalists (including me) awoke this morning to invitations from Amazon for a "Devices and Services" event hosted by Panos Panay, the ex-Microsoft exec who's now in charge of Amazon's Amazon and Echo divisions. 

Amazon raised eyebrows last September when it skipped its traditional fall hardware event, so this latest invite quite naturally set the Alexa rumor mill abuzz. 

So, what do we know about this upcoming Amazon event, and what should we expect in terms of the next Alexa? 

Let's start with…  

The Amazon event is on February 26  The tech press will gather three weeks from yesterday in a Tribeca event space to see… well, something from Amazon's Devices and Services group. 

The date is roughly four months after Amazon normally would have held a full-on hardware event. (Amazon held a smaller Kindle event in October.)

ASRock says it's shifting out of China to avoid U.S. tariffs

The company told PCMag that it "need[s] some time to transfer the manufacturing to other countries." Shipments from China via the United States Postal Service were briefly halted on Tuesday, before resuming with huge projected increases in small parcel costs. Cheap goods stores, from independent resellers on markets like Temu and AliExpress, to massive operations like Amazon, will be affected with higher costs across the board.

Vietnam and Taiwan are some potential markets that could offer additional production to electronics manufacturers, but in the meantime market forces won't let ASRock dramatically raise prices until its competitors do the same. "In the transition period, we may absorb some of the cost and also increase some in price to reflect the increased cost," the company said.

Moving manufacturing is never quick or easy, and moving might not even solve the problem in the long term.

After an incredibly accelerated timetable for tariffs on China (which are in addition to several existing tariffs), Trump has threatened to do the same to Taiwan, the world's most prolific manufacture
