Line 1: '''I/O''' (input/output) refers to how a computer communicates with the outside world. In the Game Boy/Color's Z80-based processor, registers for the input/output range are allocated 0xFF00 to 0xFF70 on the memory map. The Game Boy/Color will interact with various components on an external Game Pak, such as the ROM, RAM, [[Memory Bank Controller]], [[~~real~~Real-~~time~~Time ~~clock~~Clock]], while I/O is also used for details independent of the Game Pak, such as the sound/speaker, internal infrared port (Game Boy Color only). There is also an I/O register for OAM DMA, represented by FF46 on the memory map. The Game Boy/Color has included a huge amount of communication peripherals. One of the most commonly used is the Link Cable; which inspired the Pokémon concept as Satoshi Tajiri was a bug catcher during his childhood, [http://lavacutcontent.com/sugimori-masuda-developer-interview/ and there were also inspirations from Menko card games], and kaijuu media such as Kamen Rider, Ultraman. Additionally, the Game Boy Color (but not the Game Boy Advance) included a built-in infrared port.
