The PlayStation 3 wireless controller will still work even if it isn't charging when connected via the USB cable. It will not delay the charging time at all to use the controller while it is charging using the charging cable and should be fully charged within 2 hours for the Dual Shock 3 controller. If the controller will not take charge, it will eventually stop working .

On the top of the controller there should be a small button next to the button to release the button to the battery pack.

The Previous answer was incorrect. The gamestop ps3 controller should have come with a usb reciever for the wireless controller to connect to our ps3. When you plug it in it will start flashing a red light. just hit the "HOME" button on your controller and it will connect to the PS3 via that wireless usb connector.
You need the receiver. Plug it in like a normal controller, and switch on the guitar at the bottom on the side - you'll see it. It should flash red. Look at the receiver. If it also flashes red when you press a button, etc., you're hooked up to the ps2. Congrats =p x
Any PS2 wireless controller should be able to work on the PS1. A PS3 wireless controller will definitely not work on the PS2 and PS1, because they use Bluetooth as their wireless technology, whereas wireless PS2 controllers use 2.4GHz as wireless technology.
