vertical ones always did that the worst to me, like the GBC and the GBA SP. i hated the vertical design,

i find with the horizontal ones you can hold them differently to make it more comfortable.

Like i dont hold it with the edges touching my palms or base of my thumbs, i first wrap my index fingers over the sides so they're touching the shoulder buttons first. my other fingers curl up underneth to give it suport, and then i can play with my thumbs fully extended cuz the unit sits higher up in my hand.
