I think the advantage of interviewing on campus is getting to interact with the community in person. If you've never visited before, it's a good idea to schedule your interview after you've been able to see a class, have lunch with students, etc. If you interview far enough ahead of the deadline, this also gives you extra nuggets to use in you essays.
Not visiting schools won't directly hurt your chances (i.e. the adcom won't hold it against you), but it will indirectly hurt you in that it'll be tougher for you to make your case as to why that MBA program is right for you since you won't have first hand experience.
Personally, I visited all four of the schools I applied to. Sure it cost me $$ and vacation days, but I'm going to be investing 2-years of my life at a school next fall - this isn't a decision I want to make haphazardly. Good luck!
