Nobuhide was born the eldest son of [[Oda Nobusada|Oda Danjô no chu Nobusada]], in [[Shobata castle]] in the Kaito District of [[Owari province]]. He was a powerful figure within Owari province, though not a daimyô in his own right. Rather, he was one of the 'elders' of the Kiyosu branch of the [[Oda clan]]. He had a reputation as a spirited leader and conducted numerous raids into [[Mikawa province|Mikawa]] and [[Mino province|Mino provinces]]. He clashed with the [[Matsudaira clan|Matsudaira]] of Mikawa and fought a series of contests with the [[Imagawa clan|Imagawa]] of [[Suruga province|Suruga]] and [[Totomi|Tôtômi]], highlighted by his victory at the [[Battle of Azukizaka]] in 1542. He fought with [[Saito Dosan|Saitô Dôsan]] of Mino in [[1547]]-[[1548|48]] and concluded a peace treaty that saw his son Nobunaga married to Dôsan's daughter. His progress in Mikawa, on the other hand, was checked by the Imagawa, who defeated him at Azukizaka in the spring of 1548, although he was able to secure the Matsudaira's [[Anjo castle]] in [[1549]]. He fell ill and died at [[Suemori castle]] on 8 April 1551 and his funeral was carried out at the Bansyôji. He is remembered as being brave, at times reckless, and intemperate.
