Nobusada joined the [[Takeda clan|Takeda]] around [[1560]] after fleeing his lands in [[Kozuke province|Kôzuke]]. He had his old fief restored to him by [[Takeda Shingen|Shingen]] the following year and proved to be one of the most dependable Takeda generals. He led large forces at the [[Battle of Mimasetoge|Battles of Mimasetoge]] and [[Battle of Mikatagahara|Mikatagahara]] and was very useful in the Takeda's Kôzuke campaigns. He commanded somewhere around 500 men at [[Battle of Nagashino|Nagashino]] for [[Takeda Katsuyori]] and managed to survive the battle even as many other senior men were killed. His father [[Obata Norishige|Norishige]] was not so lucky, however - he was killed in the fighting. When the Takeda fell in [[1582]], he joined first [[Takigawa Kazumasa]] and then the [[Hojo clan|Hôjô]], finally ending up with [[Sanada Masayuki]] ([[1590]]).
