Super Contra

Konami's 1988 title Super Contra is a fast-paced run and gun game. As the sequel to the original Contra, players once again assume the roles of commandos Bill Rizer and Lance Bean. Gun upgrades can now be collected twice to enhance their firepower, which comes in handy against the relentless alien horde you'll have to face.

Eagle-eyed patrons of our shop may notice a new Easter egg as part of their ice cream experience: we're now appending a random zany video game quote to the bottom of every receipt.

If you have any favorites you'd like to see added to our list, let us know!

It's one of our favorite days of the year: Small Business Saturday!

We're selling hand-packed pints of our homemade ice cream at a special price of $6. Load up your freezer so you don't have to leave the house when it gets colder out!

Temperatures are about to drop, but it's warming up here at Tubby Robot -- Hot Apple A La Mode sundaes are back!

Here's a legitimate protip: you can add hot apples to *any* of the items on our sundae menu, as illustrated here with our Belgian Waffle Sundae.

After hearing the plight of some of our allergy-afflicted customers, we've secretly been experimenting with crafting dairy-free frozen confections.

Today we're sharing our first dairy-free item with you: mango sorbet! To make it, we puree an absurd 20 pounds of mango. Stop on by and check it out!

A new educational season is upon us, and we're ringing it in with a special PB+J Sundae!

To prepare it, we take a scoop of our beloved Peanut Butter Fudge Swirl, top it with jelly, and place it inside a homemade profiterole.

It makes a great motivator for finishing your homework.
