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.

We sold out of our initial stock quickly last week, so be sure to come early!

When life gives you peaches, make peach ice cream. That's a thing people say, right? Get your refreshing midsummer fruit fix starting today!

Additionally, we have the results from last week's M&M's survey: 78.9% of you preferred mini M&M's, while only 10.5% favored regular M&M's on your ice cream. A lot of people tried to write in peanut butter M&M's, which we should have seen coming because we're quite familiar with the rabid intensity of PB fans.

The minis have it! We've stocked up and we're ready to top.

We're having a confectionery crisis centered around one of our toppings: the colorful but often overlooked M&M's. We recently switched our topping bar over from standard M&M's to Mini M&M's, and we're not sure which is better!

Lend your fealty to the form factor you favor in our official poll.

MAY THE BEST TOPPING WIN.

People of the greater Philadelphia area: we are back.

The Tubby Robot Ice Cream Factory is open to the public again starting today, and we're resuming our full normal schedule. Our complete menu is intact, with 16 flavors of homemade ice cream and specialty sundaes ready to go.

There are few precautions in place you should be aware of:

  • You must wear a mask to enter the building.
  • Only one group may enter to order at any time.
  • Once you order, you'll pick up your ice cream outside through the side window.

We're thrilled to be back, and we can't wait to see you again!
