741:. The biggest test event controversy occurred at the Happo'one Resort for the men's downhill event in February 1996, when the FIS, supported by most of the leading skiers, stated that the 1.68 km (1.04 mi) was too short. The request by FIS and the skiers was to move the start of the course up either by 0.12 km (0.075 mi) or 15 seconds. The Nagano Organizing Committee (NAOC) refused to move the course on the grounds that it be moved into a protected national park Special Zone and that it would contradict one of NAOC's Vision of Coexistence with the environment. The FIS pointed out that over 600,000 skiers annually participated in that zone annually, and questioned why Olympic-class skiers could not compete in that same area. A threat to not hold the event in Japan was also issued by the FIS. It would not be until 1–2 November 1997 before a compromise could be reached among the FIS, IOC, and NAOC, where the start was moved up 0.085 km (0.053 mi) to its final length of 1.765 km (1.097 mi).
192:, a total of fifteen sports venues were used. Nagano had attempted twice to host the Winter Olympics, losing out to Sapporo, host of the 1972 Winter Olympics. The third time, in 1991, Nagano edged out Salt Lake City to host the 1998 Games. The biathlon venue was adjusted in accordance with the Washington Convention over endangered species. The biggest venue controversy was at Happo'one resort on the length of the men's downhill and the battle that ensued to the point where skiing officials threatened to pull the event entirely before a compromise was reached three months before the Olympics. M-Wave has hosted three World Speed Skating Championships since the Olympics, while the Spiral has hosted a couple of world championships in bobsleigh, luge and skeleton.
838:, who led after the first jump, needed a jump of 88 meters to win gold, but only jumped 84.5 meters and ended up in fifth place. Soininen would later complain bitterly about the officials' decision despite his gold medal win. In the individual large hill event, Funaki jumped so far that he landed beyond the video measuring area which resulted in the distance being measured manually. Funaki's jump was recorded as 132.5 meters and it also garnered perfect style points. The Japanese ski jumper would win gold in the event.

Yakebitai, but the logistical differences in adverse weather conditions forced the slalom part to be moved to Happo'one Resort.
