He fired the Gekiretsukodan at Cell, not 17. And Velasa, that may be what you're thinking of too. "Light Grenade" in the Budokai games.

It gets its name in Japan from games too. Actually, from an episode title a few eps before its actual use, and then in the games. Don't believe it is named in the Daizenshuu though. First game I remember seeing it in (not necessarily the first game it appeared in) was Hyper Dimension.
To show my appreciation, I'll only beat them half to death.

Final Flash
Big Bang Attack
Wolf Fang Fist
Any one of those.
I prefer the Characters actually fighting than throwing Ki at each other so I guess Wolf Fang Fist would be my top.

Is the Final Kamehameha only found in video games?

I know Piccolo and Nappa... I can't remember Freeza doing this, but Reacoome did. Janemba did from the movies.

Its found in GT... in one of the last few eps (isn't it right before they split from the fusion? i.e. - the splitting stops the attack, so they are in greater danger again?)

Isn't that the Big Bang Kamehameha?
The only time I can remember Final Kamehameha being used is in Final Bout and the Shin Budokai's by Veggeto.

No, that's the Big Bang Kamehameha, one of Gogeta's moves. The Final Kamehameha is Vegetto's.

Ah, so it is. Either way, its non-cannon then, correct? After all, we could write our own Mugen character and have Vegetto perform the Big-Bang-Kame-Hame-Final-Genki-Dama-Taiyo-Kaio-Makenkosappo-Flash-Ha attack.
Doesn't make it real, though right?

Correct, the attack was never used in the Manga and as far as I know the anime either.

Look at the very first post on this page! Gotenks does an actual mouth beam, too.

Ha, I guarantee somebody is working tirelessly on that attack right now.

I don't want to start a new topic for this cause it may add to this discussion (if it truly needs a new one let me know), but could someone/s make a list of all the made up attacks from the Dragonball games that are not in the manga or anime? And not the ones where they tweak the sequence of attacks that were shown.

This post feels worthless, but... didn't Gogeta use Final Kamehameha in Ultimate Battle 22 as well?
Attacks that are completely made up... Hmm... I can't think of any. (Though, Chaozu's Telekinetic rock in Sparking!... he never did anything quite like that in the anime, did he?)

Well, I guess I'd have to say the Dragon Fist. Watched a Movie 13 fansub during the time the early Cell arc was first airing on Cartoon Network and that attack was just total awesomeness.
And it got even better when I used it while playing as SSJ4 Goku in BT3.

Didn't Double Sunday start in Budokai 1? Wasn't Budokai 1 made in Japan under the name "DragonBall Z"? Thus wouldn't that mean Double Sunday is actually a stupid game attack name that they USED in the redub. But I don't think the name was actually invented by the dub, and the attack always existed in the show, however they screwed up and called Raditz's right handed attack Double Sunday while the attack should have been called Saturday Crush. Double Sunday was the move he used to blow Piccolo's arm off I believe. It closely resembles that attack anyway.
Now "Watch the Birdie" is a different story.
