Yes, you can unbrick your device with NTRBootHax, and possibility of brick is extremely small.

Ok,thanks

Could you send a Pic of the exact r4 card you are using? Becuase I am pretty sure r4 gold cards aren't supported. But just send one anyway so I can see and confirm it. Thanks!

It actually really depends on which R4i Gold you are talking about. The R4i Gold from r4ids.cn was one of the first carts along side the Ak2i to get NTRBoot support
Here's a picture of all the carts used in the Guide

Source of course being The Guide itself.

Although it would be helpful if the OP listed the URL that's on the front of the of the cart.

If your cart is indeed that one and the URL on the cart is r4ids.cn, then you are good to go.
Also there's a 0% chance of bricking when installing B9S. In fact NTRBoot is actually used to fix bricked systems

I was thinking of a different r4 gold card. GO ahead and mod yourself to heaven. Good Luck

The R4 name is a generic name and there are tons of "R4i Gold" brands out there, so it's an easy mistake. That's why I always suggest people include the URL on their cart when talking about "R4" branded flashcarts. Makes it easier to figure out which one they are talking about.

For what?

For what?

To install games from free shop and Cia's

Depends on you. 64GB should be enough for 80+ games (depends on the size of them).

I recommend 64 or 128 GB. I have a 64 GB and I find myself running out of space and having to delete games. I haven't had to delete anything I really don't want to get rid of yet, so 64 GB has been sufficient, but there are still games coming out for it so I do wish I had a 128 GB so I would never have to worry about deleting anything.

Well really 8GB or 16GB are fine as long as you uninstall games once you're finished with them. I'm never playing more than three or four games at any one time.
