Determining the number of one hat

[This problem was told to me by Clark Barrett, who got it from his father. It may sound reminiscent of the Three hat colors problem, but it’s different in many ways.]

N people team up and decide on a strategy for playing this game. Then they walk into a room. On entry to the room, each person is given a hat on which one of the first N natural numbers is written. There may be duplicate hat numbers. For example, for N=3, the 3 team members may get hats labeled 2, 0, 2. Each person can see the numbers written on the others’ hats, but does not know the number written on his own hat. Every person then simultaneously guesses the number of his own hat. What strategy can the team follow to make sure that at least one person on the team guesses his hat number correctly?
