Shinsuke's early history is obscure, and a possible connection to [[Wada Koremasa]] has been suggested but never proven. He first served as a chief retainer of [[Oda Nobukiyo]], a cousin of [[Oda Nobunaga]], and was present for Nobunaga's struggle to subdue all of [[Owari province]] at the expense of a rival branch of the Oda. Nobukiyo and Nobunaga feuded in [[1562]], with the former fleeing to [[Mino province]]. Shinsuke submitted to Nobunaga in the wake of this upset and became a retainer of the latter. He was killed in the fighting at [[Nagashima]] in [[Ise province]] in [[1574]].
