I have not played Wonderful 101. So I'm not equipped to say whether or not the game is good.
However, regarding your assessment of its problem vis-a-vis the gaming press...without answering your long-form explanation with another long-form explanation, you're asking reviewers to do something that is not their job. Their job is to assess a game for the quality of its experience for the consumer, not to compensate for the shortcomings of the game's creators by "helping others find that fun."
To be brutally honest, a game that requires a separate tutorial is one that has failed to properly communicate its mechanics, and that should absolutely affect its score.
I believe in honesty, civility, generosity, practicality, and impartiality.
