		Takeda Shingen is the main character in the NES game Shingen the Ruler, and his conquests are also portrayed in the PC game, Takeda.

		Shingen avoided possible controversy by naming Katsuyori the head of the Suwa Clan (hence the 'Yôri' in his name); as Suwa Katsuyori he was removed from the Takeda family to a greater or lesser degree, and posed no threat to the heir, Takeda Yoshinobu.
		In the meantime, Katsuyori was to act as guardian.

		On that occasion, Takeda Shingen's real aim was to take the symbolic political capital of Kyoto, and his real motive was to tie up Nobunaga's forces in response to a request from Honganji Kennyo, leader of the powerful, Osaka-based Jodo Shinshu sect of Buddhism.
		Then, as coalition forces—who had routed the 1,000 Takeda soldiers left at the castle 2 km away—joined the fray, the Takeda men found themselves caught in a deadly sandwich and began fleeing in panic.

		At that time, Takeda Shingen had already died for some year and it was his fourth son, Takeda Katsuyori who was leading Takeda house on a continuous invasion toward Tokugawa's domain.
		Katsuyori could be a brave samurai, but surely he was not a rational leader.
		Katsuyori survived, but without his powerful calvary, soon his domain was divided and conquered by Oda and eventually, Katsuyori committed 'sepuku', the samurai's suicide.

		Takeda Shingen, for example, is usually portrayed as a great man and a fine figure of a daimyo, yet this same Shingen gained power in the first place by ousting his father, Nobutora, who lived out his years under house arrest.
		The Takeda launched their charge upon the Oda/Tokugawa barricades believing that the arquebusiers would only have time to fire off one volley before the horsemen fell upon them as they tried to reload, after which the barricades could be easily breached.
		The Takeda horsemen were slowed down by having to cross a shallow river during the charge, and they were dispersed along the barricade line in several waves, rather than in a massed, concentrated thrust.
