I know there are a lot of them. I will list three I know.

Naruto
DBZ
Tenchi Muyo

Please if you know of any share and put up a spoiler tag with info on who becomes the bad guy so I can confirm it if I want to. Thanks.

Code Geass has a whole host of them. Several times flip flopping.
Spoiler :
Orange-Kun.. Uh.. Lelouch [technically], Suzaku [technically]. Heck. Techincally speaking, either side in the conflict in that anime could be the good/bad side, and pretty much every characters changes over sides at one point or another [most of it in R2]

Fate/Stay night to.

Spoiler :
Berserker's little girl becomes a good sided member, and tehnically so does Archer's. Heck, Lancer at the end tries to do the right thing.

What Ishbalan said is prolly true.
But to give some actual examples...

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
Spoiler :
Lord Genome being prime example, but Viral too.
11eyes
Spoiler :
Well... the bad guys are actually the good guys and the main characters find out they're helping the bad guys.
NEEDLESS
Spoiler :
It's somewhat more complex, but it should work out...
Sengoku Basara
Spoiler :
Mainly due to a bigger bad guy showing up, so all the sides get together against that one.
To Aru Majutsu no Index
Spoiler :
The bad guys from the beginning of the first arc turn out to be on Index's side actually, and then it all ends well. Can probably work well with Accelerator too if you are able to mix the sisters and last order arcs well together.
Macross Frontier
Spoiler :
At the end of the series we figure out that the big evil monsters aren't actually evil and that it was one character supposedly on the good guys' side that was using them. Also Ranka's brother turns to be good too.
Kemeko DX
Spoiler :
Ryōko seems to be an enemy when she appears, but then we figure out she isn't. Or she's in a middle-ground or something, anime ends suddenly and doesn't explain well... they might be doing a second series since the manga is ongoing but feh, I have low hopes for that to happen. Too bad though, I like that anime quite a bit.
Dennou Coil
Spoiler :
Yūko Amasawa seems to be on the side of the bad guys but truthfully they were just using them and later on she winds up helping the good guys.
These should suffice...

1. Shrine of the Morning Mist, with Michimune Ayatachi.
2. The Vision of EscaFlowne, with Folken
3. Busou Renkin (somewhat) with Papillion
4. s-CRY-ed (somewhat) with Ryuho
5. Soul Eater, with Chrona

That's all I can think of right now. =\

scryed has the bad guy become the good guy... and its one of the best anime ever
Close calls are always the most exciting. Coming close is always the most dissapointing.
