Apart from the obvious daft things like a sealed neo geo or a free arcade machine
I''ve just sold almost all my retro stuff, but I've got a hankering for a Saturn, and also a NES.
But I am poor at the moment so will have to wait a while.
What stuff is currently on your "To get" list?

Off topic: played plenty on a Zero Gunner 2 arcade cab while I was on holiday
Not too sure what I want next....some of the homebrew/hacked X68000 and PC-98 shmups I guess, but fat chance of that. At least I've got the images...

A few Neo Geo AES games such as KOF95-2003, as well as Garou Mark of the Wolves and Real Bout Special, all excellent games that I would play again and again.
As for my Megaman collection, I'd love to get some of the really hard to find stuff like Rockman X4 Special Limited Edition for the Playstation, Rockman EXE 2 and 4 Special Limited Editions, a boxed Euro version of Megaman V for the Gameboy, Rockman Gold Empire, Rockmans IQ Challenge and Rockman Dash: To Save The World Adventure which are really rare Chinese/Taiwanese Megaman games that are now dead hard to come by, then my Megaman collection might actually be close to completion!

I don't realy want anything badly.
I'm always looking to build on my collections but have to do it on a strict budget.
For years I always wanted Pitfall II for the 2600. I played it once, at a friends, when I was 12 years old and never seen it again after that.
About 4 years ago I managed to get it using ebay.
Now I've ended up with a couple of them and a sealed version!!

Hi,
A
Sharp X68000 from Japan. Played an emulator and the games look brilliant and all appear to be arcade perfect.
Last one I saw on eBay Japan went for over £150 with £120 shipping costs.

Try Yahoo Japan and a proxy service. Its still likely to cost a similar amount though. Your best off buying it from someone in your own country.
If your buying it for the arcade conversions, I wouldn't bother.

Do you complete all of these games? Only Megaman games are well hard! If so, I bow in the presence of a superior gamer.
Took me weeks to crack Megaman 2 for the GB....
