How do you connect a wireless controller to the PS2?

Every wireless PlayStation 2 controller comes with a little plug-in receiver because the original controllers were wired but to do this, you have to plug your receiver into the controller port, then put AAA batteries in your controller, non-rechargeable ones are better because they have a longer life. Then you turn your joystick on, on most wireless controllers for PlayStation 2, the switch is found on the back above the battery cover,then a red light should come on both the joystick and the receiver. HAPPY PLAYING

Will the PlayStation 3 wireless controller still work if it's not charging connected via USB cable?

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 .
