No idea if this is a reputable site or not but they seem to have them in stock:

I would email them for sure though since the image doesn't match the description.
a few Homebrewers have done this themselves, and sold the nice looking cart. I really like when they do this. (see my blog posts on Qwak and Anguna for instance). Pretty much if a homebrew developer releases something on a cartridge himself, I'm more than willing to pay for it. And if the cart comes in a box or with artwork or manual, I'm willing to pay more to support the scene. I personally think GBA is far from dead!

hi guys, i'm new here and i'm the author of holy hell.
guys thanks a lot for the encouragement.
I'm really happy you enjoyed the game so much.
i'm looking for a stock of cartridges to burn and i'll sell them packed in a box with a poster and maybe a pin.
now i'm almost done with sfx and soundtrack so i hope you'll get soon news about a first print of the game.

also really really really thanks a lot at jp1 for the link he provides here!!!

The game looks awesome. I wouldn't encourage people to make their own carts if you are planning on selling them yourself. Hopefully you will continue to make some more cool games.
Those firelinker carts are great for homebrew devs by the way because they behave exactly like a commercial cart once you put the game on them.

I checked out that site a little and it seems they will offer a discount on $500+ purchases if you contact them directly. Maybe you could get some kind of bulk price. Anyway, good luck and be sure to keep us notified when you get the games available for sale.

I'm also tempted to NOT try the ROM out and just wait for the cartridge!
