As far as I can tell, the improvements to 8bitdo came in a newer version of fwupd than exists in 16.04.

and many others.

Backporting newer fwupd to Ubuntu 16.04 is not however a trivial effort due to other challenges. I would recommend that you try to run the update from a live USB stick for Ubuntu 17.10 which contains a newer fwupd.
