 ## Description
 
-TBD
+Loads a snapshot of an emulation state of the emulator instance from `path`. Returns `0` on success, a positive `errno` value on POSIX failures, and `-1` on other failures. Detailed error messages will be written to the [[log|GB_set_log_callback]] on failure.
 
 ## Thread Safety
 
 `GB_load_state` must not be called if the instance is being run in any thread, including the current one (via a callback).
+
+## Notes
+
+SameBoy follows the [BESS](https://github.com/LIJI32/SameBoy/blob/master/BESS.md) specification, and will load save states from other BESS-compliant emulators.
+
+Loading a save state will fail if [[the save state's model|GB_get_state_model]] is from a different [[model family|GB_model_t]]. Loading a save state from a different model in the same model family will not change the current model in the emulator instance. If this behavior is not desired, call [[GB_switch_model_and_reset]] with [[the correct model|GB_get_state_model]] before loading the save state.
