Yes, and the sprites were supported by a specific coprocessor. For example, the Apple II didn't have one.

We had to make do with Shape Tables in AppleSoft BASIC…good times drawing those out manually on graph paper. And then XOR-ing them onto the background. Amazing how good games were on the Apple ][ without dedicated graphics hardware.
