There was no Roman Hannibal. Hannibal was a Carthaginian general who invaded Italy by crossing the Alps during the second Punic War.

Hannibal did come into Italy, but never attacked Rome itself
Hannibal lost his siege machines when he crossed the Alps to get into Italy. Without these machines we could not hope to take a city the size of Rome, which would have had to be starved into submission with a long siege. After travelling from northern to central Italy and winning a battle there, Hannibal headed to the south instead attacking Rome for this reason.
Scipio Africanus undertook a campaign in what the Romans called Africa (Tunisia and western Libya), Carthage's homeland. The purpose was to force Hannibal out of Italy. It worked because Carthage recalled Hannibal to fight Scipio, who defeated him at the battle of Zama. After initial stunning victories Hannibal got bogged down in southern Italy and was confined there by the Roman legions. When his brother Hasdrubal, who was bringing reinforcements and siege machines from Spain (the power base of Hannibal), was intercepted and routed in central Italy, Hannibal withdrew to the easily defensible mountains of Calabria (the toe of Italy). He was stuck there for four years.
I don't know who Hannibal Backa is. If you mean Hannibal Barca, he was the Carthaginian general who invaded Italy by crossing the Alps with his army and elephants.
