The 7800 had a controller with a keypad used for many games.

Is that gone entirely?

Who am I kidding, I wouldn't have bought one anyway, but it was my first console.

Unlikely. They put a fake keyboard on their most recent Atari 400 despite many 400 games requiring a keyboard.

As another commenter pointed out, I was thinking of the 5200. But yeah, I was also doubtful.
