Flower upkeep is also even easier as the silver and gold watering cans also water multiple flowers at once. Already-watered flowers sparkle, so you have an idea as to which flowers need watering.

In New Leaf, if, for example, you put you shovel back in your pockets, pressing left or right will still have the character holding the tool they were just using before, City Folk introduced the ability to be able to cycle through tools and miscellaneous items with the D-pad, though the inconsistency of putting down a tool, than pressing either left or right, only to be holding something you didn't have equipped previously was an annoyance.
