Санчез says that iNES Mapper 147 is yet another Sachen board, used for the game Challenge of the Dragon and its localization Chinese Kungfu

 Mask: $4103
 Bus conflicts in the mirror at $C103-$FFFE (don't do that)
 $4102: [PCCC CP..]

A variant of the same game called Chinese Kungfu also exists, but given its verified status is GoodNES (“[!]”) it seems the original game may be defective—the wrong CHR banks are selected during attract mode and in the second area of gameplay. Looking at the actual graphics, CHR banks 4 & 6, 5 & 7, 12 & 14, 13 & 15 are duplicates of 2, 3, 10, 11 respectively. Taking the last 120KiB of CHR from Challenge of the Dragon and using it to replace the corresponding bytes in Chinese Kungfu seems to produce graphics that function as intended.
