To use menu views, you combine nice menus with menu views and special menu items.

https://drupal.org/project/special_menu_items
https://drupal.org/project/menu_views
https://drupal.org/project/nice_menus

The first step is to make a block view that looks exactly like the drop down.

Say:
node title
node title
node title
footer image

Then you add the view to the menu and pass any contextual filters you need. Next, you add the menu to the nice menu 1 block settings. Last, you place the nice menu 1 block on the page.
