For the benefits of other users experiencing the same issue with NVidia card,

Frede Hundewadt:

When you reach the live media menu - boot with opensource driver - press e to edit the line - insert the a space and the number 3 at the end of the line beginning with linux and press F10 to boot.

You should reach a TTY where you can login using user manjaro, passwd manjaro.

Then you can use sudo manjaro-chroot -a and from there you should be able to install nvidia drivers
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia

This above would allow an installed Manjaro to boot using NVidia card.
ie. You need an installed copy of Manjaro + a working version of live media.

After booting into Manjaro, some of the apps would need to be refreshed - uninstall and reinstall.

I still haven’t found a way to boot into live media on Nvidia card - which as @linux-aarhus said: maybe the solution is to wait for new manjaro ISO with newer Nvidia drivers.
