Irem's 1987 title R-Type is a horizontally-scrolling shoot 'em up game. Though infamous for its difficulty, R-Type is among the most beloved games in its genre. Players control the star ship R-9 "Arrowhead" and strike against the evil alien race known as Bydo.
The Tubby Robot Ice Cream Factory will be closed on Wednesday, July 4th so our staff can get its grill on.
We'll promptly resume our normal schedule on July 5th with a special sundae to continue the independence day celebration through the weekend.
In this episode of Tubby Talk, Terry, Steve, and Chris discuss the history of the console wars and the consumer trends that drove game makers into a decades-long battle of one-upmanship.
Systems discussed include: Atari 2600, Atari 5400, NES, Master System, Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo, Sony Playstation, Nintendo 64.
The Manayunk Arts Festival is this weekend, so we've extended our seating area with a lovely covered tent. Inside the tent, we've set up a mini-gallery featuring some very exclusive Tubby Robot fan art!
In this episode of Tubby Talk, Terry, Steve, and Chris discuss unsung games that are worthy of a second look.

After eating a full belgian waffle sundae single-handedly as a nightcap, one of our staffers woke from a fever dream with a vision for a new ice cream flavor based on a popular cinnamon cereal.
We've forged this vision into a reality and we've named it Cinnamon Boast Bunch.
It's an original creation, like Rickey Rouse and Monald Muck.
Here's a look at the freshly-baked puff pastries that make the foundation for our Ice Cream Hoagies. We don't want to be presumptuous, but we're betting that our shop smells better than wherever you happen to be at the moment.
The Tubby Robot Ice Cream Factory will be closed on Sunday, April 1. Happy Easter, everyone!
In this episode of Tubby Talk, Terry, Steve, and Chris discuss the genre known as side-scroller video games in depth.
Games discussed include: Super Meat Boy, Sonic the Hedgehog, Chester Cheetah, Aladdin, Demon's Crest, Sonic 3, Sonic 4, Freedom Planet, Sonic Mania, and Mario Maker.
It's hard to believe, but Tubby Robot has been open for business for an entire year! It's been an incredible 365 days: we've served up 40,000 scoops of ice cream and won some great awards, but we feel like we're just getting started.
To honor the occasion we're unleashing our newest creation: the Ice Cream Hoagie. We bake shorti-shaped puff pastries and slice them open to fill with ice cream and the toppings of your choice. It's an extremely philadelphian take on a classic recipe that just might make you rethink the way you eat ice cream.
Thanks to our adoring public, we won a Best of Manayunk 2018 award! The Belgian Waffle Sundae has been conferred with the illustrious title "Best Dish to Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth".
Our deepest thanks and appreciation go out to our fellow business owners, the Manayunk Development Corporation for organizing, Bourbon Blue for hosting, and all of our amazing customers who voted for us and keep us rolling every weekend. We're here because of you!
