What would the consequences of a dissillusioned Hannibal offering his leadership as a general to the Romans after the Battle of Zama be?

I'm imagining that:
  • Hannibal is pissed off with Carthage after they failed to support him in his earlier campaigns.
  • He wants to further expand his reputation as a great general, and sees he can do this by fighting for his old enemy Rome.
  • He is ready to turn his back on Carthage, as they had on him.
  • He does not want to live out the rest of his life in exile.
Any ideas?
