You can still buy CDs / DVDs and load them on a PC.

It's possible you could jury-rig something up for a tablet, but it's also clear the intended use is as a networked device.

Because phones and tablets don't have SD slots? or data transfer from blue tooth or NAS drives isn't a thing?

Gamestop does not sell games on SD cards for those tablets. So, somewhere between 99.99% and 100% of the time that's not what happens.

PS: iPhones and iPads don't have SD slots so for millions of these devices that do qualify as phones and tables it's really not an option.
