The 1940 Olympic Games were originally scheduled to be held in Tokyo, Japan, but several countries planned to boycott the Games there because Japan was waging an aggressive war in Asia and then Japan itself decided the Games would be a distraction to their military goals. The Games were then rescheduled to be held in Helsinki, Finland, Europe, but the start of World War II in 1939 caused the Games to be cancelled.
The Answer is: 1964 Tokyo Japan, Summer Olympics.
Others were: 1972 Sapporo Japan, Winter Olympics
1988 Seoul South Korea, Summer Olympics
1998 Nagano Japan, Winter Olympics
2008 Beijing China, Summer Olympics
Seems that every 10 years the Olympics are in Asia alternating from Summer to Winter, which brings us to a startling fact, for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games Pyeong Chang Korea, is bidding for the games. I wouldn't be surprised if they win just baised on the System.

Japan (Tokyo) almost hosted the games in 1940 however it was cancelled due to WWII (World war 2) and then Tokyo tried again and ended up to be the first asian country to host the summer Olympics in 1964. Seoul (Korea) hosted the 1988 games ans Beijing (china) in the 2008 games coming up,
