You are obviously in superlative overload. The only thing you can do is
go back to the basics and call it the "plain old". Sales will suffer
for this product, but you can call the next one "plus" and things will
start picking up again.

And fer cryin' out loud be more sparing with the superlatives next time!

If the target audience is relatively young, "extreme".

A thesaurus is often a help in such pursuits. Even if it doesn't give
you the word you want, it may kick you in the right direction. You can
find decent ones online.

Hello Geodanah,

Hyper?

When I drove through Spain for the first time I couldn't stop laughing
for a while. They had these "Hypermercados". Probably the next step up
from "supermarket". Thing is, many of them were hardly bigger than a
mid-size house.

Regards, Joerg

Ah, but the new kids have irony. So things that are really good are
called "bad", "super bad", or even "sick".

Hello Geodanah,



When I drove through Spain for the first time I couldn't stop laughing
for a while. They had these "Hypermercados". Probably the next step up
from "supermarket". Thing is, many of them were hardly bigger than a
mid-size house.

We also have them in France:

Supermarché
Hypermarché

And there is a difference in size, I can tell you.
