Money Trick on Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse

When you play Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse you will notice some upgrades can be purchased at the town’s store with the gems you got, of course, this process can be quite lengthy since most of the enemies drop one or five gems.
Meanwhile I was playing the Wii U version of the game (for our upcoming review), I noticed a little trick that allowed to fully upgrade Shantae’s hair and Risky’s pistol and sword and I wanted to share with you.
You can find the instructions with a gallery below:
First, you need to go to “Tan Line Island”.
Now, you need to enter to the castle (check the map if you don’t remember where it is)
Once you’re in the new room, go right. Once you reach this chain, climb it up…
… and go up until you reach this door.
Now, go right until you see the chain.
Beat the enemy, and go left.
Once you reach this door, you need to enter…
… and complete this segment.
Once here, go left (remember to jump!)
Once on this chain, just fall down…
… and you will reach this place.
You will notice here’s secret entrance to a place…
FILLED WITH POTS! You should have around 80 extra gems! But now we need more…
Once you finished, go back and go left. You will find some blocks and a door…
Just hit them, enter the door and go back, then break the blocks again and go right to go back to the secret entrance.
And ta-da! The pots are there again! Repeat this until you reach 999 gems! (around 13 times).
